What Made You Angry Today?

St. Anger 'round my neck.

Yeah well this same friend invited me to a couple nice church services over the holidays as well as to his family dinner (he's right that they are seriously dysfunctional people! But also kind to have me in their home). And he's been there for me a lot in the last year when no one else was. Right now though, you are probably right. He needs to translate his crazy into plain English or I'm not on the hook for being supportive of it.

Learning that I have more anger to channel correctly as I stop stuffing it inside.

I am angry that the LandLord takes in new rental people and does not bother to introduce them to myself or the others still here. I like to know the difference between a breaking & entry vs. a new set of roommates. H3ll to be on the bottom of the pecking order.

Nothing has and nothing will, because it's one of those 'I just decided' days.

I spoke with my friend and we both feel a lot better for talking. I acknowledged my anger and some things I said were not okay, told him some more about PTSD, and he acknowledged he has not been presenting things in a way they could be understood.

Sorry. I'll post about getting angry again later.

My sister were waiting in the hospital from 10.00 until 17.30 for me to have a ECG and then to see a urologist, and now I'm on the emergency waiting list for treatment, which they say could be next week.

So, I was a wee bit angry today, it's been a long day!

Well I had a visit with a new neurologist in December because my symptoms were bad. I had seen him once before and he ordered two tests. One tilt table and one sweat test. The tilt table, I think I did fine on other then breaking out in a profuse body sweat from standing too long. The sweat test showed sweat, which I expected since I was sweating up a storm. The first test did not show that. Anyhow he never told me the results. On my visit, he treated the pressure I sometimes feel in my head, as a head cold or an oddity. He told me he did not believe my problems were neurological(I've been diagnosed with this for eight years by two doctors and the NIH) and he was cutting me from neurology. No other discussion. When I called him to clarify, he did not return my call. I just read my charts and he removed Autonomic dysfunction from my charts as a current health problem. I am so angry!!! Sorry for the rant. I found him to be dismissive. Also on my first visit, after explaining some of my symptoms, he turned to my husband and asked him if that is what he saw. Didn't feel listened to.

Knowing my daughter is suffering and not knowing what to do to make it better.

That's tough, @Heather.

Have you asked her what she needs? Which people of support system she feels like contacting about what happened, how it impacts her life, what her plans are?

 

[Heather]

@Cashew - I have asked her what she needs but she's only 12 and says she doesn't know. I have her in counseling and she does like her therapist but she's not ready to talk about what happened yet.

I just feel so lost and helpless.

@Heather
Judging on my own experiences, she among other things probably needs someone she can trust, as a friend, and that will not hurt her, that is very important in recovery, to realize that friends won't do such things that happened. This is just from my own experience and thoughts. Sending :hug:s if you accept.

I'm angry that I'm anxious enough to have distorted thoughts that are making me take everything personally. And I want to punch something.

 

[Deleted member 20978]

Nothing has made me angry yet today, but oddly, I feel I could use a punch in the face myself.

I feel the precursors of anger. DIsorientation. Irritation that mind fields wrestling with each other produce conflict rather than resolution. Same old faint voices in my head (not literally) telling me you're just a chump, kid, stop taking up space. Trying to learn to not argue but wondering at what point I'll feel actually angry. Writing this post is making me ... annoyed.
