well im just wondering..

is it ok that i'm really upset about the fact that i lost my earing today? Like really really upset. as in i was going to cry when i realized i lost it. Im pretty much in a terrible mood now. Is that ok.

im just trying to figure out if im over reacting because i think i may be doing that a lot lately. Little things that dont bother anyone else make me get really upset or even cry. why am i being like that. why do i get upset so easily.

My T said my "thermostat" didn't work right, that all things were "equal" in weight so small things and large things were alike. I think I couldn't tell the difference very well (like I couldn't really tell apart different feelings). Practice getting to know what's small and what's larger, etc.

Were the earrings themselves "special"? I mean, if they were given to you by your father when you were 3 or something and you lost one, that would be a big deal. I had a silver bracelet like that which I lost in the Ocean. . .

Some things just "surprise" us too. I was baking a cake which needed 8 eggs and I was cracking them, putting them into the bowl and the shells into the sink/disposal and go the order wrong and cracked an egg into the sink. I panicked, forgetting I had a dozen or more eggs so plenty of "extras" and tried to grab that one back :-) If you're going along accustomed to wearing those earrings most days and suddenly one's lost, that could cause a bit of "panic" but I take it you're not as upset now? So, no harm done. You cared about those earrings a whole lot. So what? That's you and fine.

Awww Court...so sorry you lost that earring i lost my earing...

I've been there too hon....lost something and broke down and cried over it. Maybe it can be a little over the top, but if that's the mood you are in...then so be it.

I think it's great you are able to see that some of life's "little things" are affecting you more than they normally do. I think many of us go through that at times. But to see it is part of the battle, once you see it, you can work on finding out why you might be more touchy than normal. Once you figure out what is really at the root of those feelings, you can then work on that.

Here's hoping you can find that earring and you are feeling better soon!

Hugsss
