    Yeah you had enough. Ive come down from my mini meltdown
    T
    Having an inner meltdown so I open up a meditation app. Why do they always begin with an inspirational quote to skip past. Then all these pop ups asking you to donate! I already pay 50 pounds a year, calm me down don't stress me out!

    I'm trying to just accept the pain and not write a whole fictional story about it which will open up a whole world of secondary suffering. It is what it is.

    Going to the gym in non fitness gear because you were walking by and fancied it is fine. The only appropriate gear I had on were trainers that's it. Having to have all the gear like a muscle shirt or yoga pants is neurotypical rigid thinking in my opinion!

    I once was sneered at for going on a hike with sandals. My friend had the walking boots n all. It was only a trail around a gentle hill. I called them my "adventure sandals" (stolen from Wild Boyz 😂) At least it got a laugh!

    I once went to the gym in the same clothes I wore to class, hung my blazer on a weight rack, and worked out like that. It's about the habit of going. You're doing fine.

    Anxiety attack = blamethrower engaged.

    Main thing I can do is concentrate on managing the emotions over thinking of reasons it's someone else's fault.

    I don't like to be asked "How are you?" on an email especially by a successful family member. There's pressure to write enough not to be rude but also to lie.

    When I take a break from screen time and other media and just do chores in silence or sit in silence that's when the physical pain, anger at the pain and blame for that pain comes in. That's why I'm always distracting myself.

    That's a problem too. I always listen to the same stuff so it does not bother me, but everyone is different.

    How does someone do self compassion. When I don't meet my standards I get very upset and punish myself!

    I do have a lot to deal with pain, stress and fatigue. it's when I make bad decisions.. and I have an addict brain that works against my better judgement. So hard to break the cycle!

    Think of how you would treat other addicts here. Think of the support and compassion you would offer them. You deserve this, too.

    Last time I had 10 minutes leeway and still arrived late.. looks like I should take the early one and bring a book and buy a coffee! Luckily they have these bariatric chairs which are flippin comfy! 😁

    Burned another bridge with my temper when I felt slighted, I'm not able to express myself in a socially acceptable way in real life. Emotions take over

    Getting quite severe depression after drinking coffee. I really should stop. Apparently people with mood disorders should have caffeine in moderation..

    Drinking coffee is helping me. Use to never until 2 months ago. Going to my "local" really 45 minute walk coffee shop but I love so much the community got me hooked to coffee, a new community and talking to women more.

    I think that would be a good idea - to stop if you feel so poor. If you still want a hot drink, you can try making tea. Or hot cocoa!

    I wish my mood wasn't so turbulent and I had some stability and things wouldn't push me past my ability to cope so easily. Why am I so unresiliant. My brother had a health scare today which is depressing and alarming, I feel like I should have been more assertive about his bad habits. I am a bad brother.
    Rodafina

    If you had been more assertive, maybe it would have been seen as overbearing and angered him. A "bad brother" seems like one who would intentionally cause pain to his brother, not someone who is just doing their best and dealing with a lot of mood instability. We cannot be held responsible for other adults' choices, even when we really care about them.
