Dear Coffegirl,

Take some deep breaths. :hug: :hug: :hug:
You are not stupid. It happens to lots of us.

Try not to be angry at yourself.

Thank you Mari. Now looking back I realize it doesn't matter what I said/that I sent it. Just realize I will never be able to change the views other have on me. Keep forgetting that one.

you are not stupid, it is called impulsivity, a bipolar thing.

You know the thing is that I personally have sent emails and things.
Which I have trouble remembering to make sure that they make sense
first. Or that I'm not angry when I'm sending them.

Dear Coffeegirl

just wanted to say hi and i hope by now you are feeling better about the email. when i do/say something that later i feel awkward about or get a bad reaction to, i have a hard time shaking the feeling afterwards... but i notice that others often move on rather quickly. sometimes it helps me to remember that, it makes everything feel less ominous so i can feel better about it sooner.

have a good day tomorrow.

I have a hard time not putting my foot in my mouth during conversations. To quote my sister I "just don't think before (I) talk."
And I have sent some unwise emails myself.

We beat ourselves up unmercifully for these kind of things, but we all have to remember (afterwards ;) ) that we can't turn back time.

I hope nothing comes of that email.

:hug:
Kay
