Has anyone ever done this?
I did it today. I was in a state over a very frustrating phone conversation, where the other person would not accept what I was saying, and when I tried to speak (because I heard a pause in them talking so I thought it was OK for me to speak then) they got annoyed and spoke angrily over me saying "I'm still talking!" This happened a few times and they spoke very patronisingly to me and I ended up in tears of frustration. They insisted I wasn't understanding what they were saying, I was, it was just that I disagreed with their opinion and their logic was flawed and based on generalities which did not apply to the situation in hand. This person is supposedly aware of ASCs too but is yet another NT full of their own importance who doesn't get it.
After putting the phone down I was upset and really angry, I felt really overwhelmed and wanted to scream and rant at this person. It wasn't possible so I ended up bashing out a very angry fax and pouring out everything I wanted to rant at them.
I have to speak the truth and they wouldn't have liked this fax at all. But I don't care. I felt as if I had literally melted down by fax, although I am still full of the overwhelmed and angry feeling because it wasn't the same as physically melting down.
I would say I rarely meltdown (although my husband would disagree with this) as I am more likely to shut down. But when I'm pushed too much and under a lot of stress I do meltdown more easily.
Has anyone else melted down by text/letter/fax/email?
