What Made You Angry Today?

[Tanishq]

Something made me very angry in the morning, I got over it. Feels good.

That the hand rail on our new porch isn't to what the city expects. It looks more like a banister then a hand rail I guess, but people could still hold onto it if they are careful going down the stairs. They want it to be narrower for people with smaller hands. Mine are normal hands and I was just fine going up and down the stairs. Geesh. Okay, enough of my rant.

I got angry today because I just wanted to stay in bed. but couldn't. I can't make myself be happy in that environment. I'm angry because I had to leave my apartment in a fog. I'm angry because I felt like I couldn't communicate any of my feelings either within myself or to another person. I'm angry because I feel like my body is telling everyone to f off and all I really want to feel is connected to myself and other people again. Also angry because this seems to have been going on for decades in my life and nothing seems to change. Also angry because I have to go to support group today and am already unhopeful that it will help. Also angry because AA is bullshit I think.

Angry because I feel like I have been standing still in the midst of existence for over 20 years and nothing is changing for me. Angry because I was abused as a child. Angry that other people don't get abused and have lives that are fine. Angry that I can't deal with my anger!

I got angry at being blown off by a flake. I now understand I need to make some serious changes with this person and take care of my boundries better. I feel better after I realized I needed to accept this person as a flake and find different solutions to my problems.

A 'friend' who seems to be determined to push my buttons no matter what.

This being the same 'friend' (a counsellor and former psych nurse) who decided to lecture me the other day that I should stop taking my medication because I was getting side effects, and clearly she knew better than me what I was going through. Despite the fact that I'd been on the pills for less than a fortnight, and the side effects had almost worn off...

And the same 'friend' who freaked me out completely by suggesting that hub getting therapy and becoming suicidal again was a good thing, despite having been told it was a major stressor for me.

Now, how to explain to people I want to cut her out of my life, because I actually think she's just not very nice, and I don't like her, without being accused of isolating.

My terribly selfish horrible neighbour who I am so tired of. She set off the alarm again and again did not think to come and turn it off followed by only turning it down a degree and not resetting it. Normally she does nothing about it even if it is 2am and I am the one who deals with it. Which meant I again had to go door to door to check who it was before setting it (otherwise there could be a fire not attended to). The alarm is loud enough to life the roof for the whole premises so she would have woken over 10 families and no urgency as I am sure in her mind she is the only one that exists.

It was early in the morning and I had just managed to get a little sleep after horrible insomnia this week and have a very demanding and long day ahead of me.

Almost every single problem in the block = her.

So tired.

Almost every single problem in the block = her.

I hope she will suffer from the consequences from her own behavior soon, and that it will mean that she will be removed from the block or be dramatically changed as person.

Angry with my self. But not in a healthy way. (Depression speaking.) Wish I could direct the anger outwards, at some of the things/people I really have a good reason being angry with. I think it would help.. But I can't find the switch/button to change the direction of the anger.

Maybe I should be angry knowing that my son doesn't get any play time in football(high school). I know it is because he is not as experienced as the majority of the other players, but they could, at least, tell him what he needs to do in practice. Instead they hardly put him in practice. I know they are competitive, but isn't the point of practice to learn and hone your skill? So, I guess, I am angry about how they handle him in practice.

I went to my son's to help his wife with upcoming plans for their daughter's b-day party. We were talking . . . I couldn't come up with the name of those colored paper crepey things that you twist from wall to wall for decoration. They're called streamers, I recalled moments later. When talking about the five salads we'll be having I said the word KeenWa for Quinoa instead of Ken-o-wa (my son corrected me). Leaving, I said to the puppy they just got that morning, "Good-by PearrOh." My son corrected me again, "Mom, his name is PaeRrrho" (rolling r sound). When we got to my car he said "Maybe you should make an appointment with your doctor about your memory problem." I said, "Yea, X (his brother's name on purpose!), maybe I should. Or maybe you should less critical about little things."

A man swearing at his child. It is awful to listen to and I get angry at myself for not being able to point out to a stranger that shouting at a child in this way is wrong (but pointing this out to a scarily angry man could have consequences for me that I don't want). Verbal abuse and anger towards children disgusts me. Why have kids if you're going to treat them like that? Grrrrrr :mad:.

To the people, who think it's funny to damage my apartment building. I learned, today, someone dented the front door, on Friday, which you need a fob to open. Thus, anyone can walk into my building and there is no stopping them. Not a good situation for my anxiety levels. Am hoping that it gets repaired, asap, but not holding my breathe, as the landlord hates to spend money.
