Have you ever?



Have you ever at a point of your life that you completely lost and you think you made all the mistakes in your life? I had the exact feeling this morning when I woke up. Not to mention that I just had a panic attack due to multiple stress. I really had an emotional weekend which wasn't really my type of weekend. For the past years, I want my life to be nothing but SANE so I dont really like the whole emotion rollercoaster bull shit.

But then I got it this previous weekend. All the symptoms show: short of breathe, barely movable, nearly faint, limping, throwing up. It's just bad! I think I scared E. Bass
alot! Sorry, baby! So here comes the ultimate question- What triggers it? What happened?
Overwhelming STRESS. From what? work is really stressed, our relationship is tense and mostly due to my responses. Then we decided to take a long break, which hopefully will be beneficial for both of us.

I know we both need the time to manage ourselves, I just chose the extreme way to deal with it but it doesn't mean it's the end. I think we both should stop using other people's standards to measure what's between us, especially me. I got this inspiration email from
nana the other day, I am so amazed how mature this email thread is. So I decided to steal it so I can use it for my momentum!
