I HATE BEING TOLD THAT I CAN'T DO SOMETHING!!

DepressedRecluse
I can do anything that I set my mind to...when I'm healthy...ok...I admit right now I am having a very hard time doing anything!...but that doesn't give anyone else the right to tell me that I can't do something...
I know you probably have no I idea what I am talking about so let me explain...
Yesterday, I sent an email to the U.S.Army on-line recruiter asking for information on re-enlisting in the Army Reserves as a Chaplain Candidate! Last month I spoke to a recruiter at the SouthernBaptistConvention and said I could re-enlist as long as I got my MDiv and re-enlisted as an Officer before my 47th birthday.
Now I know it sounds almost impossible for me to get my MDiv in less than a year...but I am sure that if I apply myself...and attend full time, I CAN DO it...anyway...
Today, I read the reply email from a recruiter at Ft Knox...telling me that unfortunately I can't re-enlist because of my AGE and because I don't yet have my MDiv.
Well after reading that email, this morning, it just completely ruined MY entire day!!!
I HATE BEING TO WHAT TO DO!..AND I HATE BEING TOLD WHAT I CAN'T DO!!!... I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT I CAN DO ANYTHING!!!...So...when someone tells me I can't, it just send me into a FRENZY...I checked my blood pressure later this afternoon and it was ...are you ready? 196/106 P80!!!...
For the last year and a half, I have been told by everyone possible...that I can't do this...can't do that...no...no...no!...and I am just tired of it!!!...it pisses me off that I can't do what I want to do!!!!...I want to be in school, I can't....I want to be in the army...I can't...I wan't to be in a relationship...I can't!...I can't seem to get anything done...or ...do anything!!!
AND IT IS SO FRUSTRATING...!!!!! AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE BIBLE SAYS WE CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST. SIMPLE TO SAY. HARD TO DO. BUT YOU CAN DO ANYTHING GOD HAS LAID ON YOUR HEART TO DO.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
