Today has been a day of feeling like I have so many things to do, I just get overwhelmed, lash out at my spouse and shut down. Managed to pull myself together and finish the day on a more positive note, but, it took effort. My usual answer would have been a slow burn and possibly drinking...glad I went through the unpleasant feelings and came out ok in the end. My spouse doesn't want me to drink, but, he also wants a happy, happy all the time, no matter what. Doesn't work that way for me sometimes...
