So Pissed Right Now

[Bill Dickerson]

My niece played a video on her phone of her cheerleader group cheering and screaming, The squealing sounds just like hurt kids I used to deal with coming into the ED. I asked her not too but she played it again for my Mom. I'm not sure if it's flashbacks that it caused or they ignored my simple request. Or that my sister argued with me about the whole thing. I'm so on edge right now I could scream........

Screaming children get me like nothing else. Screaming women (terror for both) run a close second and can affect me for days. I so wish that people would just hear us when we say - you need to stop. I can't count the number of times that I have been dismissed in this way and when I pass out in front of the people (because that is part of my reaction) have them get p*ssed at me? Seriously. It makes me wonder about people. I am so very sorry that you were not heard and the pain that you are in because of it. :hug:

Oh so sorry. There was a bad wreck in our front yard many years ago very early in the morning. I woke up to the sounds of the crash, the teenage girl screaming. I work in retail and to this day I will leave the sales floor to get away from the sound of howling children. There are just certain sounds that take me back to that day. I totally understand why you would be angry at someone who wouldn't be considerate of you. They just don't get it, that it isn't funny, it is painful and rude.
