I don't normally chime in on things like this -- but I did just want to say that. Have a little compassion for yourself. You are going through something rough, and it's natural to have erratic behavior. You've apologized, sincerely -- and you're understood. Give yourself a a little break. Hugs


This is a good point. Especially "you're with people who can understand." If you're going to lash out at anyone, it's better us than the man across the street who is in a position able to physically hurt you and has his own issues but isn't aware of them and doesn't have empathy for others with theirs and will go off as equally hard if not harder on you.
