I don't get it.

Most of the time I'm pretty level headed. I get along well with others, and generally act normal. But, just under the surface I feel like I'm just going to lose it. The littlest things upset me. Stupid shit that shouldn't. Most of the time I just clam up and don't say anything. Sometimes I'll make a quick remark, and then be right back to normal. This just frustrates the heck out of me, and pretty much makes me feel like shit. Like I don't deserve to be around people that care about me. Fuck, I can't even type it out the way I want to. Grrrrrrr.

I understand that completely. Sorry, I don't know why it happens, but you are not alone.

You're not alone, I think alot of people feel that way, I know I do. Here's a thought that has come to me before;
Unhappiness, frustration, anger, etc. can sometimes be caused by one or the other; getting someting we don't want, or not getting something we do want.

I get angry at the smallest things, like pulling a pair of socks from the drawer and another pair falling onto the floor..... the air turns blue then. It's just us getting angry at ourselves because we (very wrongly) say tou ourselves "fuck, I can't even get that right". Have you ever noticed that it happens less when you are having a good day??? Don't dwell on the little things.

Go somewhere private and yell, scream, throw things, punch a punching bag or whatever. You need to get those feelings out. Its surprisingly common to feel to feel this way. I'm betting most people do at times. The important thing is to release it in a safe way x

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
