I still pop every now and then, usually at night. I’m great in a crisis, but amazingly fragile over the small stuff. Human condition, I guess?

Amen.

To the timing, the catalysts, the pops, all of it. Amen.

I feel like that ALL the time, and I don’t even have small boys crying because of waffle-related crises, so you’re a better woman than I am. I call it my RAGE. And deep breaths don’t help.

(Sometimes mini Toblerones do.)

I’ll tell you, for me that was one of the signs that I needed help. And I heart my zoloft, let me tell you. Amazing what a scant 25 mg/day will do for your sanity.

How do you see into my brain like this? It’s a little eerie, I tell you…

I can pretty much gauge my stress level by how irritated I am when the kids don’t brush their teeth by the second request that they do so RIGHT NOW. 8:30 p.m. is when I turn into Bitchmother, and woe to the kid who isn’t in bed by then, I tell you.

I can so relate to this post. I pop at the littlest, stupidest things. I’m great, wonderful even, in a crisis or temper-tantrum or worse. But, after all is said and done my nerves are shot and I am ready to pop! Glad to know I am not alone!
