I had something slip me up emotionally right when I got to work this morning. At first, I did well – I stayed calm, I recognized that I had the chance to try to do better, to not let it send me crashing. I thought about everything on SuperBetter. About recognizing my bad guys and countering them with power-ups and positive self-talk. But I crashed anyway, and I did it hard. Work was too busy for me to step out, so I was hyperventilating, crying uncontrollably, making pizzas, trying to keep at least that much together. Eventually I calmed down, but then something else triggered the feelings as the first time, but with the addition of a really negative inner dialogue, shaking hands, more uncontrollable breathing and crying. Once I get going I can’t seem to stop, even though I’m consciously trying to help myself. I feel like a real asshole. I feel like my friends and coworkers think I’m totally disingenuous.

I can’t relate much to panic attacks. Is that what you’d say this was?If anyone else here struggles with panic, please lend advice for eMJerk.

it’s hard completing duties when your insides are crumbling. it sounds like you’ll have to come up with plans to cope for when it may occur again. then you’ll be more prepared.

the inner dialogue probably isn’t true at all, just the negative things your mind tries to rationalize, for the frustration of not being able to solve the problem immediately… a defense. if you consciously take control, you can have a more true perspective.

what i’d do, is sometime sit and go through that situation mentally, and as it appears to you, change it to be as you want, actually hypnotizing yourself to feel the emotions that result from a true perspective’s outcome. i believe it will program you for a better feeling later.
