I really want to scream!

over a year ago

And not in a good way.

Do you ever sit there and think why the fuck do I bother?

I'm definitely having one of those moments.

Do you give more than you get back? Are you available more than others? Or have you stopped doing it?

I feel right now that I should just be an utter wanker to people instead of nice.

Do you ever feel like that?

Yes I do think about that. But if we do change how we behave, the shitheads win. We can’t allow others to steer us away from our own values, principles and moral compass.

OP, could you really change so drastically without losing all of the wonderful good stuff that is you?

The way people behave says one of two things

1. How they were raised

2. Their past traumas.

Neither of these are a reflection on yourself, however how you act is an indication of my 2 above points in your case.

Yes...a lot..always someone wanting or needing me for something or other..then when I'm wanting or in need there's nobody to turn to.

I've learnt to do my own thing now and I'm only available when I'm not busy. The shock of me "not being available" is a shock to them.

I'm so much better for it though,we have to learn to say " no sorry,I'm busy then or not available"

It's hard at first but you do get used to it..its OK helping everyone else buy it doesn't help your own mental health/state.. believe me I've been there.

Go outside and scream,you will feel better for it.. x

I think we all go through this at times. It's not nice and difficult to cope with in the moment. Hopefully this isn't a permanent state and you find your way through it to the other side. Meantime just try to avoid unleashing everything on the wrong person

On FAB I kinda gave up putting in any serious effort for meets etc about a month or so ago. The pond kind of runs dry in a small city and Shire. It's not like London or the Hot bed of Swing (Midlands).

Here mainly for the forums and even they are turning a little darK.

Don't give up, just change it up a little. It could be worse. You could be a guy!

Oh it's not all about fab.

It's just the same themes that keep coming.

If one more person doesn't stick to their word.

If one more person is avoidant.

If one person has one rule for them but a different one for me.

If one person lies.

If one person treats me like I'm just there for it when it benefits them

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

So scream. Loudly and longly. And cry. And stamp your feet.

And then breathe and make the decision that those who take more than they give will henceforth not be given that chance.

Maybe don't do the screaming, crying and stamping unless you're alone though.

Sadly it's all part of being human. I believe the anger we can feel comes from careing, maybe careing too much. But that's the rub, we do try because we do care, and when we care, there is no volume control.

When things don't turn out as we expected, or people don't act as we expected, it can leave us confused and frustrated. Sadly this is normal. Find somewhere to scream, go for a run, find something to hit, turn the music up - for me I apply any of the above to try and burn the agner out. As it goes I try to remember we are all human, and just because someone act as I do doesn't mean they don't care, it's just they care differently.

Most importantly remember the world is a better place because you care (it doesn't stop it feeling like shit sometimes, but it's better because we do care)

I dunno, feels like the whole point of throwing a tantrum is to be noticed. The point of screaming is to be heard.

There's a hill not far from me.

I drive to it. Usually I calm before I've finished the drive. Others times it's when I climb the hill. It's big and steep. I've never made it to the top and still felt the need to scream. I used to use that to measure how much something upset me. I haven't gone in years. But today I could. And I can't now. And it's also pissing down with rain annoyingly.

Yes my expectation is the problem.

But even if I stand there and say ok I no right to get upset because my expectation isn't being met I still can't help but feel the injustice of it all.

I refuse to become a wanker though. Devon's right, remove shitheads from your life. It's easier said than done but when it happens you're able to remember more about who you really are. And not feel that negative crossover of disappointment, hurt and anger.

The rain helps with the screaming I find. I tend to stand in it and want to scream but the tears flow instead. Both can be cathartic.

So get a waterproof jacket on. In the pocket put a mini bottle of red wine and your favourite chocolate bar. Plug in your Spotify to your favourite chill out tunes and smash the hill. So what if it's raining. Even better when you get to the top and know you smashed it in bad weather. Then sit on your arse and eat the bar, drink the wine, smile, stick 2 fingers up at the world and descend.

Caveat. I did this last year in Winter without the wine. Fuckin horrendous weather. I slipped on the ice on the way down and fell on my hoop. I sat there, then laid back, laughed at myself and got to the bottom. I then had a cracking coffee from Starbucks.

Fuck the bad weather, fuck bad people. Smash it. People in wheelchairs would love to be able to do shit like this!

Best of luck. Tomorrow is another day.

People will always treat you how you allow them to.

And getting angry at others’ behaviour is pointless because you have no control over it.

Tantrums are probably best left to children, religious extremists, and authoritarians.

I used to use that to measure how much something upset me. I haven't gone in years. But today I could. And I can't now. And it's also pissing down with rain annoyingly.

So get a waterproof jacket on. In the pocket put a mini bottle of red wine and your favourite chocolate bar. Plug in your Spotify to your favourite chill out tunes and smash the hill. So what if it's raining. Even better when you get to the top and know you smashed it in bad weather. Then sit on your arse and eat the bar, drink the wine, smile, stick 2 fingers up at the world and descend.

Caveat. I did this last year in Winter without the wine. Fuckin horrendous weather. I slipped on the ice on the way down and fell on my hoop. I sat there, then laid back, laughed at myself and got to the bottom. I then had a cracking coffee from Starbucks.

Fuck the bad weather, fuck bad people. Smash it. People in wheelchairs would love to be able to do shit like this!

Best of luck. Tomorrow is another day.

I get the sentiment I do. But I can't leave the house now. Not till tomorrow. So I'm just sat here with my emotions feeling shit and venting in a forum."

Then you need to pull your friends close and have a good chat if that's possible. Not knowing the scenario makes it difficult for anyone to offer advice. Usually friends or family are the answer. Except when they are the problem of course.

"People will always treat you how you allow them to.

And getting angry at others’ behaviour is pointless because you have no control over it.

Tantrums are probably best left to children, religious extremists, and authoritarians.

...and some of my old bosses!

I read a Swedish town filled with mostly students has a collective scream from balconies at 10 pm every night as a 'much needed safety valve" from the stresses of life. Sounds good

An orgasm often helps when I feel like that. Or an orgasm, a cry and some chocolate! That's what I'm actually going to buy from the shops shortly. Not the orgasm, but the chocolate

Yes I wonder why I bother sometimes.

I am sorry you are having one of those moments right now.

I certainly used to give more than I got back. Now you get out what you put in.

Consequently, I don't feel the urge to be an utter wanker to people. I can say that with conviction. It has helped a lot.

There is being nice and then there is being a doormat.

"So scream. Loudly and longly. And cry. And stamp your feet.

And then breathe and make the decision that those who take more than they give will henceforth not be given that chance.

Maybe don't do the screaming, crying and stamping unless you're alone though."

Best advice...bottom of garden and just let rip

If I want to scream and I can't leave the house I look at cute videos with wombats etc on TikTok. Once I start smiling and saying awww, I've calmed down.

Aside from some family who I choose to make allowances for, I prefer to be with people where there's reciprocity in our interactions.

Maybe it's time to reassess your boundaries so that you can avoid feeling like this in the future

Look after yourself first. Don’t do anything that you’re not comfortable with. Don’t be too available either as people will take advantage.

Make sure they do as much for you as you do for them.

I used to... then I started saying no to people. Made life much easier.

"And not in a good way.

Do you ever sit there and think why the fuck do I bother?

I'm definitely having one of those moments.

Do you give more than you get back? Are you available more than others? Or have you stopped doing it?

I feel right now that I should just be an utter wanker to people instead of nice.

Do you ever feel like that?"

no, you are generating too much negative energy, just move on.
