HAVING A WHINGE
Permalink  

Had a couple of meltdowns this week.  Quite scary like panic attacks.

Felt I couldnt  hardly breathe, no not a heart attack, just sheer upset, and bawling again.  Went to the doctor,  she said I wasnt going mad, .

At a bit of an upset where I volunteer,  to cut a long story short,  another woman who has since apologised to me, got right up in my face so to speak, a real bossy boots, well I just couldnt cope, and started to shake , .  

So I am going to give myself some space from that place for a while.

It just came out of left field, I had been coping so well up to that point.

I have some good news though it looks like Howard will get insurance payout for his disability, which will be a lifeline to us both. 

Did not visit my drinking friend, as I need to look after myself first.

I have stop whinging, sorry guys.

You whinge as much as you like Lyn. Sometimes you have to step back for your own peace of mind. This sounds like one of them. All the best.

Lyn, I think that you are doing the right thing trying to get yourself back on track. Sometimes you need to just take care of you for a while.

Great news about Howard. That will be a load off both of your minds.

Relaxxxxx......and enjoy.....

Cheers. Pam.

As all the others have said Lynette, you have to take care of you first.  If you don't, you'll be no good for any-one else either.

You two need some time for yourselves, to unwind, and re-charge.

And letting off steam is not wingeing.

Cheers,

Sheba.

Hey Mate you are not wingeing a melt down is a meltdown.

Those agro people in the volunteer orgs are not worth wasting your time on. You are a caring person who has the emotional honesty to express that in crying and otherwise. That is gutsy.

Look after yourself and you know you have friends here. PM me if you want.
