I’ve been suffering meltdowns for many years now; which I never did before then (not childhood, teens, and 20’s). My meltdowns are crying fits, then embarrassment and depression, take to bed and withdraw. But I always still have to do the cooking and cleaning.  |
Thank you very much for your kind reply Tisha Buv!!!
Yes exactly - frustration over inability to control ourselves, others, and even our own emotions!!! You hit the nail on the head. (Sometimes it's also not knowing how to drive in the nail when mending the holes in my garden shed in my case!!)
What is wrong with a crying fit??? Isn't it inevitable in some challenging life situations? Raging also?
I suppose that I'm old enough know how to control my relationships with other people - have figured what is and isn't a productive way to behave - but internally there is another script happening.
