Candybear, it appears that you are so steamed over this you aren't thinking and reading straight. That's when it concerns me...when it is affecting your own health.

I didn't come by this information easily. I, too, injured my own health considerably by becoming "steamed" at things that were, well, out of my hands. I had to learn to allow some things to go by, and allow others who truly could handle them to do so...as it would affect my health too negatively. If you are already in the dumps, it does help to accomplish something, I agree. But to keep getting angry over every injustice won't get you anywhere but ill.

None of us can save the world. We each do our part. But when we have mental unwellness already, it does no good to kick against the rocks. Our precious energies and time are better spent elsewhere... yours, perhaps, in funneling that energy into well written articles about injustices??? Something like that maybe?

I had to learn the hard way not to get so upset over unfairness. My PTSD is what caused the hyper alertness and over-the-top reactions. My T is who has patiently shown me how it is ok to not get angry and irritate myself over things I can't change... and to act purposely and calmly (as I can) over the things I CAN change.

No one is assaulting you for wanting to make the world a better place. We just all want you to focus your energy on something that you can make a difference with, imo. TC!
