Pissed off, thinking about ostracism

Happy belated Birthday Kooky

p.s. I'd recommend Brene Brown too, the majority of my Mind colleagues have watched/read her. And use her in their work.

Tembo · #**22444** 22nd April 2021, 11:08

Happy belated birthday Kooky! I'm glad you enjoyed your day

I'm feeling super panicky after a job interview. Does anyone have any advice on how to calm down? I'm too on edge for music, mindfulness and the usual things which calm me.

Amara 94 · #**22445** 22nd April 2021, 12:30

Happy belated birthday Kooky. Sorry I initially missed the mention of your birthday yesterday.

I have a mild headache from sleeping late yesterday. I feel better but still think the anger is bottled up, I think I'm stimming from the anger.

Amara 94 · #**22446** 22nd April 2021, 13:10

^Yeah. I just did some yoga and meditation. I'm doing exercise now, need to learn more about working out. I feel serious like a fighter currently.

Tubbs · #**22447** 22nd April 2021, 14:27

Happy belated birthday, Kooky.

Glad you enjoyed your day in the end

(This is my ideal birthday!)

Happy belated birthday Kookster!

I trust you adopted a stylish birthday ensemble outfit to wear for the day

Consolida · #**22449** 22nd April 2021, 21:55

Absolute crap.

Percy · #**22450** 22nd April 2021, 23:31

Sorry to hear that consolida

Consolida · #**22451** 23rd April 2021, 02:05

@ Thank you Percy and Kooky Monster x
I'm feeling a little better now.

Dougella · #**22452** 23rd April 2021, 12:51

^ They came in your flat without even asking you first? I think that might be illegal, or at least it's not right. Sometimes these teams who do this type of work really seem to lack communication skills, they seem to forget they're dealing with people's homes.

Tubbs · #**22453** 23rd April 2021, 14:30

^ Omg Kooky, I would be so stressed

I hate having workmen in even with tons of warning, and having my mum answer the door while I hide in another room.

Dougella · #**22454** 23rd April 2021, 14:55

^^^ At least he apologised, I hope the workmen did get a serious talking to.

Mo34 · #**22455** 23rd April 2021, 14:56

Holy crap kooky

Hope your alright

. I'd have had a right panic attack. I don't know how anyone can think that's right legally or morally.

Mo34 · #**22456** 23rd April 2021, 14:58

I'm feeling a lot better than I have in a long while both physically and mentally. Least for today. Been to animal sanctuary and had a really nice mellow morning with the horses and goats.

Consolida · #**22457** 23rd April 2021, 18:16

^ Thats so nice to hear Mo, you deserve all the good things in life for taking care of all of those lovely animals at the sanctuary

@ Nanuq - Thank you as always for your kind words. I haven't stepped outside today to enjoy the sunshine, but there's always tomorrow

@ Kooky Monster - I can only echo what everyone else has said here. It's just wrong, wrong, wrong for those guys to enter your home like that! I would have freaked out BIG time if that had happened to me

Mo34 · #**22458** 24th April 2021, 18:24

Had another nice day. Went to the other sanctuary in the morning. Then drove up into the South Downs and went for my 2nd covid jab. I was told Hugh Bonneville is one of the volunteers at that Covid hub/centre so I had high hopes of being directed to my vaccine by Lord Grantham! Sadly not

he was no where to be seen today.

Met my friend J and L afterwards so we sat by the pond with some hot drinks and had a catch up, was really nice. Haven't seen either of them since end of summer? last year.

Percy · #**22459** 24th April 2021, 18:46

Glad to hear you had a good day mo.

Dougella · #**22460** 24th April 2021, 18:58

^^ That would have been good, to be directed to your jab by Lord Grantham! Shame he wasn't there. Good you got the second one anyway

Mo34 · #**22461** 24th April 2021, 19:22

^^ Thanks Percy

^ I know, wouldn't it!

.
Yes I'm glad I'm fully vaccinated, I feel lucky really as I'm 42 with no physical health issues, so should have been further down the list/line.

Tembo · #**22462** 24th April 2021, 23:10

Mo, that sounds like a lovely day. Glad youâ€™ve had your second jab too.

I met up with some friends today in a pub garden. It was lovely to see them, but I really struggled and found it overwhelming. I was very quiet and didnâ€™t say much, which must have come across as rude as I hadnâ€™t seen them for a long time. I find conversations a lot more difficult than I used to.
Iâ€™m very lucky that Iâ€™m somehow able to have friends, and I donâ€™t want to ruin it.

Dougella · #**22463** 24th April 2021, 23:21

^ I think many people seem to be struggling to get back into socialising again, even people who don't usually have any anxiety about it. They were doing a segment about it on the radio the other day and people were saying they'd forgotten how to do it and they couldn't think of things to talk about. I'm sure your friends appreciated you being there and didn't mind if you were a bit quiet.

Consolida · #**22464** 25th April 2021, 00:26

@ Mo - It's good to hear that you had a good day

@ Tembo - As Dougella says, I'm sure your friends were just glad that you agreed to meet up with them. If they are good friends, and they sound that they are, they will know that your quietness certainly wasn't a sign of rudeness and will understand that it's stressful socialising again after the horrendous past year we've all had. I think everyone is feeling strange coming out of lockdown and reconnecting with people they haven't seen for a long time

Feeling calmer than I have been. This latest manic episode seems to have passed. It might be finally time to go to the doctors about this, itâ€™s not something that affects me most of the time but perhaps thereâ€™s something that can be done about when I do have these periods of self destruction. Iâ€™ve never had much luck with doctors though.

Mo34 · #**22466** 25th April 2021, 10:50

Thanks Tembo and Consolida

You're older than me (although you don't look a day over 18).

Do you think you might be bipolar?

Seagull · #**22469** 26th April 2021, 15:37

Feeling bloody marvellous at seeing the Tory Party imploding and our dear leader Blow Job being hoisted on his own petard by vengeful Mekon Cummings (via trip to Barnard Castle first, obvs).

Dougella · #**22470** 26th April 2021, 15:39

^^ Be careful about using bleach as that can affect you quite badly. For mold you can use washing up liquid and water. I hope you can get some of the issues sorted!
