.but I will take that over weeping and beating my self up about this and even my dog goes into the other room b/c he doesn't want to be near me; When the dog is embarrassed for you, you know things have to change lol
Ha haaaa! Mimi I totally needed that comic relief this afternoon! It's funny, the few times I have cried quite loudly in my house (only when nobody else is home, of course), my cat gets really nervous, paces around and meows loudly. I can also tell when I have complained too much in one day and need to get out and do something, because my (awesome, super patient) friends will tune out or change the subject.
To MNS . . . if you find that you are thinking gloom and doom thoughts, STOP. A little tip, though. Don't try to stop thinking about what you are thinking about. That doesn't work. (What if I told you right now not to think about elephants? What did you just think of? ) Instead, think of something else. It might help you to literally have a list on a piece of paper of things to think about. Surely you can come up with a dozen things to think about that are better than thinking about gloom and doom, but if not, just add some random things. Like a three toed sloth.
