Well today was a good day. My staff and co workers are still getting on my nerves however instead of getting mad I got a good laugh from there lack of common sence. :rofl:I'm still waiting for the big test of the new medication. Which will be someone starting a physical altercation with me. I want to see if I'm able to restrain myself without getting pulled off of someone.:dontknow::dontknow:Well time will tell.
 
Meds will help some, but the best way to help yourself is to figure out what exactly is pissing you off and deal with that. It isn't your co workers that have you so pissed, it goes much deeper than that. Find out what is pissing you off!

I will gather that you are stuffing emotions, feelings, and your trauma, and then something little happens and you BLOW!!!!

Deal with things head on, and let your poor co workers have some peace....

Welcome to the forum BTW!!!!!!

And Thank You for your service too!!!!!!
 
Well I had a long day today. I did not sleep well last night and it really affected my ability to put up with people. When I'm tired my tongue gets really sharp. The people that know me will just stay out of my way. The wife just tells me to go take a nap. My staff did alot of apologizing because I had no patience today. Normally I make an effort to control my tongue. Today I had a vendor that tried to get smart with me on the phone. I took 2 hours out of my busy day to make his day miserable. The job that he had to d could have been done in 30 minutes but with my help and the lack of help from my staff it took 2 hours. It's a good thing he makes alot of money from our company or he would have told me off and then I would have cancelled his contract. Peace for now.
 
Well I had a fast day. Things were hopping at work. I actually had one of my staff ask me if I was having problems at home or something. :rofl:Home is the only place I don't have problems. I hope the lady was just trying to flirt or something.:eek: I try and hide my emotions at work. I had several good laughs today. At work I do not like being asked why. If I give an order I expect it to be followed quickly. One of my staff made the mistake today and ask why.:naughty: After I explained why to this guy for 10 minutes, I really believe he will not ask why again. Peace for now. :hello:
 
I just got up and will be camping and fishing today. The lake is very relaxing to me. AS they say a bad day fishing is still better than a good day at work. The weather is starting to change here and I will not be able to take the boat out many more weekends. Once snow is on the ground I don't take the boat out. Today is the wifes birthday so hopefully she will catch a big fish. She loves to fish. I relax more on a boat and seem to be nicer. We are going to a huge lake so I will be able to get somewhere with just me and my family. Peace for now.
 
I did not catch any fish but the view was incredible. I enjoyed the water. Well I did relax yesterday and today. I did not have to yell or lose my temper.
 
Welcome from a Canadian Afghan Vet who suffers from PTSD.

Sounds like you have quite the lake to disappear to, I'm glad you have a place like that to go to and relax. I find it's good to have a place of your own to "find yourself" and one that you can connect with nature is even better; it helps with the healing. It's a little rocky at first when you start taking meds but after a while and you find one and a dosage that works for you; things will seem to "even" out.

It sounds like you are on the right path and started just in time. :wink:
 
Moog: Thank You for the thought. Today was a good day. My staff keep things quiet which made my job simple. I got to talk to several new staff and explain the details of the job them. Peace for now.
 
:poke:Nothing really happened today to set me off. However I was moody and went out of my way to start stuff. :dontknow: I guess the passive agressive thing raised it's ugly head. Well as they say I am what I am. I do not have spilt personalities . However my staff think I do. I have my good days and my more interesting ones.:stupid: Peace for now.
 
Welcome! I like how you put that.....good days and 'interesting' ones. Yeah, that is like I used to say when my kids were little bitty, every day is an adventure. (not saying if that was a good thing or bad thing, haha)
A sense of humor will help a lot I think. :thumbs-up
 
thank you U might know me
I really try to find humor in things however my humor is sometimes warped.:naughty: I work around a rough group so they don't realize my humor is warped. However around nice people I get called on it.:rolleyes:
 
I understand that kind of humor. My husband and kids are masters at it. They get some strange looks and confused nervous laughter directed at them sometimes. I am constantly explaining 'he is JOKING!' much to the relief of whoever it is.
