There is a reading in the Big Book in the first 168 pages that you can read each morning upon waking- and one you can read each evening. My suggestion is to find that and read it, start your day over and see what happens.

If you are still triggered emotionally, you can email me, and I would be happy to talk you through some de-escalation!
Much love and light to you!~Cheryl
