I get angry at my kids when they are mean to each other.

My own irritability, tensions, not feeling so well, frustration, self-neglect and self-centeredness makes me angry today.

I'm angry that the car is broke again.
I'm angry at my H for trying to leave it to me to deal with.
I'm angry at myself for not dealing with it.
I'm angry at my Son's for lounging in bed all day and not doing something constructive or looking for jobs.
I'm angry at the weather - totally fed up of it!
I guess I'm just angry today and want to curl up into a ball and go to sleep.

I am angry with myself for gorging on food last night instead of dealing with my feelings.

I can't be to angry with him but Max (big dog), has brought down the curtain pole and curtains in the lounge. Not just down the plaster needs re doing - grrrr. He didn't care, just wagged his tail and brought me a teddy :O_o: .

 

[Froggie]

Max seems smart ... bringing you a teddy for peace and forgiving... yeah not stupid at all your dog (((KP)))

(((KP))) I hope it is easy to fix. I hate when that happens especially when you are not feeling good.

(((Rain))) I am glad you got your prescription all sorted out.

A colleague's behaviour has made me annoyed for a few weeks now and today he has made me angry. Good to know we're moving office soon. He could have been a friend though, and that bothers me. Isn't that silly and so typically me: wanting someone as a friend who is not good for me. History repeats itself until we learn. Coming to think of a quote I really like: Experience, the most brutal of teachers. But you learn, oh God, do you learn. (C. S. Lewis)

I so wish I could make that feeling of being angry and disappointed and confused go away. Unfortunately, always my happiness depends on others in addition to me. Since you can't control others, this is a one-way street with a dead end. Can we open up a "confused" thread?

Adding to the "angry", I'm drained.

Pissed off at our metro office for red lining my purchase orders. I told the Aquatics director I'd be glad if they'd try to run the pools for a month to see if they can do it any cheaper than I am already. They are ticked because I did what I needed to do and "unredlined" an order item... too damned bad. It wasn't an optional item.

Gggggggggggrrrrrrrrr. Hey Metro, F' you.

After remembering the dream last night, I realized that I was living in denial that people didn't / don't understand the hardships of PTSD. They are very compassionate and empathic with the cancer, but PTSD ! I feel angry and in my dream I just blasted all my anger on a person who didn't understand PTSD. I feel angry and sad, the only place I can really talk and feel understood about PTSD is here. All we need to say is one word like : nightmare ... flashback ... dissociate ... isolation ... etc and WE KNOW what that means and feels like. Thank you forum and forum friends.

Thanks for your post, Froggie. It says it all.

I feel angry because I can not control people. I'm not saying I really want this! What I mean is I can do everything and anything and still not "make" another person treat me differently. I hate my one colleague not being able to behave in an adult way with at least a certain amount of politeness but instead behaving like a 15-year old boy being miffed and making sure to show me. I hate that nothing I have tried has really changed anything and that I am stuck with feeling the way I do about this. I know people have the right to choose; I want to have it too, so I need to accept it from others (and that I do). So at the end of the day I guess I feel angry with myself because I can not stop feeling muddled with and cheated (in this case) and while is taking care of himself, I am thinking more about him than myself. Passing by his office every single time I leave or enter mine does not really help either.
