Sounds like you just gave yourself a 2x4. In the moment emotional control is extremely difficult, but you're gonna have to get it down. I personally think that it is the single most important thing that a lbs has to learn. You will get more chances with this one. Texting should be the easiest place to get this down. Read every text three times before pressing send... breathe and THINK. One thing that will slow you down in every interaction is to always consider what the affect of saying the opposite of what you feel like saying would be. Many times you will realize that if you in fact said the opposite of what you feel like saying the reaction you get would be much more favorable. If you can't bring yourself to saying the opposite then keep your mouth shut .. Or don't send the text.
