You are assuming I am normal, MayB?

Add one more question...
Are you a woman? If so, this is par for the course. All they want is everything, yesterday, and on top of that, you're supposed to have a crystal ball that enables you to see what you can do today about what they're going to expect tomorrow... My cure for this kind of frustration is to find an empty plastic wastebasket and drop kick it as far as I can down a vacant hallway, and repeat until I begin to laugh at the whole thing.

MayB
The first time I took a friend for a drink and asked if he could step in and help. When he refused I remember going to the washroom, sober as a judge, and throwing up. I solved the problem a different way once I stopped panicking. The second and third times, I simply went ga-ga and ended up in hospital. The stay gave me time to look at things objectively and realise that none of it was worth the hassle. Take care, MayB.

Tapsel-T and Ginnie, I think the time passes where we can simply sit back and do nothing. Something must give

I felt some of those things recently, and ended up leaving my husband. Are you okay, May?

Tapsel's answer is awesome!
I can remember those feelings twice in my life. I was sinking, sinking. In one case I did something physical. I remember ripping a part a whole kitchen and rebuilding it. For some reason physical work breaks through emotional barriers for me.

I have felt that way a couple of times in my 68 years, MayB. At the final breaking point, did a total stop and an about face and went a completely different direction and never looked back. Not an easy thing to do, but very much worth it.
