V and U I have to own up to having a few of these deep temper tantrums with my ex. Never any violence, but outright emotional outbursts when in the depth of depression often triggered by a perceived rejection or abandonment either physical or emotional by my ex.

V your screaming banshee reference always makes me cringe.

I am wholly embarrassed by my behaviour. "Unraveling " I was. This behaviour is so outside my belief system and values.

I am so sorry for your experience U of being on the receiving end of so much hurtful and abusive behaviour.

How you are managing yourself in this situation U is admirable . I hope to carry myself in the same way. To banish this behaviour from my life and relationships.

Thanks for being honest about it. Thanks to V for being so honest about her experiences, it provides much food for thought, fodder for change!

Ps U - might clean and do some maintance on my bikes this weekend, get them ready for when I am able to do some miles....

Thinking of U
