NowIunderstand的日记, 2014年09月6日

Got so ticked off today! I felt my blood boiling. I think I have anger or over the top reactions. I've always had them, but now I'm recognizing them and they seem to be more frequent.

I've quit drinking wine regularly since May so I'm guessing having wine is like a release valve for a pressure cooker. Again, I'm guessing.

Nevertheless, I'd decided to take an Ativan. My doc gives me 40 a year and I usually take them when I can't sleep. A prescription lasts me about 2 years. Well, wanting to calm myself down, I took the Ativan and went right to sleep! They are really to calm the nerves and not to put you to sleep. But they did just that. Did wake up feeling better though.


The anger, I know where it comes from. Childhood, being trapped and unable to fully express the anger. It's also my first coping mechanism. (Anger is a secondary emotion, covering fear, hurt or frustration) ,

Really not feeling happy this year. And I have this feeling of just more of the same heading my way, just in a worse environment. (getting older)

Anyway, thinking maybe an anti depressant would help. Never had them, never had any pills. I guess what I need is 'Fun'. Exhilarating Fun. I use to have that in my life where over drinks, we'd laugh till the tears came out. Those friends are dead..literally.

The friends I have now don't share my history, and it's not the same. They are for most part, guarded. And/or self absorbed.

I need to find a good partner in my life, who'll see me as 1) a friend, and someone who wants to build something with me. As it's my desire to start up something, a business, real estate, whatever, so that we don't have to earn money, but make money. It can't be that hard. I see people doing it left right and center.

I think the most important thing in a relationship is that there is friendship through love and fun, and equitable sharing of all responsibilities.

Anyways enough of this! Good night.

I love the idea of making a plan to find a way to make money instead of earning it. What an outlet for creative energy. Feeling angry is not a good feeling. Anger triggers can be recognized and dealt with. What are some of the coping strategies that have worked in the past. Are there any new strategies that could leave you feeling good? I know my house would get real clean real fast when I was angry. I have mellowed and learned to look for intent when feeling triggered by anger now. Doing that helps me to depersonalize some of the rough spots that I was sooooo reactive to. Keep looking for like-minded friends. One can not have too many of those. Good luck. J

Thanks Jovial. I need to not take things personally. that's what I need to work on. I need to read the book 'The Four Agreements' again. I need to take some time to work on my spirituality.

I am so glad I read this. I had the biggest urge for a few drinks this afternoon; just to get thru an uncomfortable situation. I didn't. I didn't even take a pill.. I'm not bragging; I take celexia (antidep) every day - evens me out and I've had some tears rolling down the face induced laughter. It's not every day; I still have peaks and valleys' but I know it's helped.

Anger issues, low energy and a depressed state has been much of the fabric of my life. I feel I've always got to whip myself back into a good state of mind. I've adhered to some New Age thinking that has helped me (The Law of Attraction) stay positive. But that only takes you so far and the fans have to be continually flamed to keep you in a positive mind frame. Which is hard to do, since after awhile the same message gets kind of boring. It is odd though, that came into the time of my life where I was very low and was consciously praying for some type of belief system that could help me. It did. And I still believe in it. I'm just not immersed into it. It all comes down to faith! @Fulla, I don't know how my post could've helped you, but I'm honored it did!

I guess it helped because I don't feel so all alone to know someone else is frustrated.

i have bipolar disorder, so i have been through many pills and therapists. anti-depressants most certainly won't give you that feeling of enthusiastic fun. they just make me feel normal. not enthusiastic. it seems like you struggle with something i struggle with too. i don't currently have a good IRL friend. except my husband, but you need girlfriends too. it makes me sad. as to the anger, an anti-depressant could help, but i think mine has been helped more by therapy than meds. as to the ativan, i take it a lot because i get a lot of panic attacks and anxiety and sometimes i take it to sleep too. good luck.
