Hi Alffe~
Thank you for sharing that excerpt, which spoke to me in a big way! It is so true, the formula mentioned, and how one thing leads to another, to another, until it is so out of proportion nothing makes any sense.

I'm guilty of giving in to this kind of "stinkin' thinkin'"...many times over. You'd think I would get it! It's been a long time since I felt this angry, to the point of wanting to disappear, as a means of escape from the emotional pain. I'm stronger than that. Sometimes I faulter, and don't process this sort of anger very well.

Doody, I can relate to your post very well!! In my teen years, I had a boyfriend break up with me, and I thought I couldn't live without him! I tried to make him feel bad by attempting suicide. Stupid, stupid me...he didn't care, and left me to learn to deal with my abnormal emotional behaviors. One of the best things that could have happened.

Thanks again for posting such a thought provoking message!
