Thanks Mari and everyone. What do you mean when you say "spend some time with you" meditate? Pray? Cook? I feel depressed and anxious. I went to my meeting, went to yoga but couldn't relax because the dog thing from Costco was on my mind and lunch too. So after yoga I went to Costco to see if she was there, she wasn't. I wanted to apologize. But instead I asked to speak to the store manager and asked him to sit down with me. I explained the incident, that I felt awful, that I made some mistakes too in the situation. I took a handout on service dogs and explained that I have TBI and PTSD, neither are visible which makes it hard. I explained that her super enthusiastically scared me and the dog weren't into protect mode. The manager was great, I was shaking with anxiety and I told him that I will always be villigent (hyper villigent....LOL!) about my surroundings but that it may be helpful to explain to his staff about invisible injuries. We shook hands and I feel I did the best I could. Now I am home and may cook or may not. I think I will try some meditation for sure. Thanks for the guidance and support.
