started anger management class

i started my 1st day of AM class yesterday (monday) at the VA. we had to go around and say things like "hi my name is bla bla and i've been angry since i served in the military bla bla..." i took notice that not only was i pretty much the youngest one there but the only FEMALE! and this guy next to me looked at me and was like "are you a veteran? why are you here?" i looked at him like he was crazy and said "well uhh DUHH!!! why are you HERE??!!!"

so when it was my turn to speak and introduce my self, i couldn't help after stating my name but say "...and yes i AM A VETERAN i served 5 years in the Marine Corps, and i've been angry all my life!"

so what the hell is the deal with people and they never think that us FEMALES are vets too and few of us HAVE served in the CORPS!! most MEN can't even handle the Corps so they better not even dare look at me with question, cuz boy, i tell you, piss me off and find out!! sad to say it this way, but i guess i'm more "man" than they are! LMAO!!

anyway... the class is a 12 week course so wish me luck on it! thanks!

Good luck with the course and I hope it helps you out! Good for you though for speaking up and I know I'd definitely be a little intimidated if I were the only female in the group!

i wasn't intimidated at all. i was just pissed as hell that people automatically assume that because i'm female, i'm not a vet. welcome to the 21st century, assholes!! believe it or not, a few of us women can kick the living shit out of you guys and all your so called macho shit! 99% of vets i meet were never even in the Marine Corps and they are men, so what does that make me?? well i'll tell you what it makes me, a pissed off marine with bigger iron balls than those men! ha ha ha ha

Blue you scare me in a good way. I've heard that AM classes don't help and that they seem like AA for anger instead of drinking. I hope it does help you though. Nothing wrong with a female serving the country. You are so not male.

The one thing I'd be afraid about with AM is pissing someone off. Obviously we're all there for the same reason, but it wouldn't be good to get a lot of angry people in the same room. I'm supposed to join a group. I hope it works for you, give me some encouragement to join one.

    Food Allergy?

    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...
