  • Ah, I never talk to anyone about it. Not rationally, anyway.

    Honestly, when I get really bad news that I can't do shit about, I throw an immature tantrum initially. Maybe it's because I don't want to show that I'm hurt by crying or talking....I show anger. No, not even anger. More like hatred. I hate who told me the news, I hate who's here that isn't ME and directly affected. I shout, I tell people to fuck off, I'm a baby. I want people to pity me-no not even pity me, but fear me and feel like they have to help me or excuse me for acting like this, at least. But after the initial shock, I normalize and deal with it in a rational manner. OK, I have to do x, y and z to deal with this. That's what I do, then. Life goes on. I have kids and a household to take care of. Deal.
