After having a bad couple of days... hanging on the verge of a breakdown the whole time and not being able to because of responsibilities I have... I lost it yesterday...

I was driving to work yesterday morning and my clutch just gave in, I was in second and there was no third, and no other gear. So I freed to a stop on a hill, I didn't want to go over because then no one will see my car.

To shorten the story, the service garage of my car refused to tow me and I ended up getting a lift there myself and pouring coffee over the manager's computer because he didn't want to listen to me... Needless to say I got his attention!!!

Wow Tanya! I have to give it to you, you have way more guts than I do! I would have thought of it but been too chicken to actually go through with it. Did they call the cops? I hope you don't get into any trouble of it but at least you stood up for yourself.

I hope you're feeling better and I hope nothing bad comes from the coffee incident. I'm so glad you're safe.

Hugs,

Thanks you all!!!

I don't think the guy will make a fuss about the coffee... I can still get him fired fro not wanting to help me... I know the head of the company all too well....

I'm sorry you feel better for losing it rather than for solving your problems in a positive fashion. For me, negative habits of thought and action have been the hardest thing to "fix." They get me "stuck" where I don't want to be and I have to practice better responses over and over for a long time before I get back to where I do want to be. It's been 15 years and I'm still having troubles with one problem I've been working on well since 1991. But, I was doing it "wrong" from 1955-1991 so looks like I won't get it better until 2027? No problem, I'll only be 87 I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes we just have to stand up for ourselves. I know its not supposed to be kosher to dump coffee but I did it once long ago too. Good for you. You must have been pushed a little too far. Hang in there. I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!! I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!! I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!! I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!!

That's the thing... I don't have guts. I'm always this shy timid little nobody who lets people walk over me. Yes, Perna, I agree it's bad, but it's not a habit. The reason I felt so good was becase for the longest time I havent' felt any emotion, not anger, not sadness, nothing... What I did was terrible, but I felt so alive!!! It gave me a little hope and opened me up to other emotions. I have never and won't ever do anything like that... again.
It just felt like this deep breath of fresh air after sitting in the smoking section!!!!!!!!!!

Sure glad you haven't taken on a quilt trip. Good For you. The way you told it sounded exactly like that. Free! You broke out. and thats powerful. It is exilhirating to discover that under the quiet, shy person we can be there is steel that can stand up and be counted when it matters. When I have come through some things like that I have to rejoice that I am growing and if I am growing I am healing. It took me awhile to learn where my boundaries were ( if I ever had any)and what an exciting journey that was. I may not have done it "right" but as I got stronger and my fear settled down i could deal more effectively the next time. Still learning. I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!! I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!! I lost it completely and feel better!!!!!!!!!
