Just bend the pieces til they fit
I had a total emotional breakdown last night (an hour before work mind you)
I was watching the hospital shooting episode of Greys and I broke. This whole time I have been waiting for a release and it finally happened.
I called my sister right away and she calmed me right down. I am so lucky to have the siblings that i do. Nothing but amazing support and great people to look up to.
I was just having irrational fears of failing and of not living up to their expectations.
After I let that all out, I felt a huge weight lifted. Work last night went better than ever, and I feel like I completely got all of that negative energy out of me.
I am trying really hard to be a more positive person. To take risks, even if they end up being embarrassing mistakes or don’t work out…whatever.
I am getting drinks next weekend and I was going to bring a buffer, but I am going to just go alone. I have this different kind of confidence now where I feel like I know who I am, where I am comfortable with myself.
Oh a side note, I have lost 5lbs since Sunday.
I "work out" harder at work then I feel like I do at the gym, so both of those combined have worked out so far.
I am growing tired of FB and Twitter. It makes it so easy for people to be mean and hurtful because they are sitting behind a computer screen. It’s just really starting to get to me.
For example..someone was asking opinions on a flu shot. This is exactly what I said:
"I got a flu shot in 2007 and I had never been so sick as I was that year. Double ear infections, strep throat and multiple colds. I won’t ever get one again"
Some person responds and says their opinion and then adds another comment:
"And you can’t get strep from the flu shot, that’s just stupid. Sounds like BriAnna just has bad luck"
And this girl i am friends with "liked" that comment.
I responded:
"I know the shot didn’t give me those illnesses, I was just sharing my experience"
Then I deleted all of my comments from that thread.
Another thing I need to work on is not taking everything to heart.
But do you know what I mean?
glad to hear you have a great support system. nice job on the 5lbs. keep it up. and my favorite saying is “just consider the source” so much of what so many people say is so not worth even listening to…let alone getting upset over. take care
