RE: Trigger Words - Learning to Control my Emotional Reactions

Thank you Simone I really appreciate that. It is something I will probably never fully recover from...I’m getting by but will never be over the loss.

I’ve wondered if you ever wanted children but never asked just in case it was a sensitive subject for you. You just never know what people are going through. I’m sorry it makes you sad thinking about it. 😟

Yes when I hear those words: you need or you should, it does sound thoughtless and controlling.

I understood you just fine. I would definitely feel the same way as you if I were in your position. I would want people to be motivated and encouraged and to have a leader that’s not sensitive to how others may feel would be very frustrating. I can see how the word “no” is your trigger. Is there anyone else in the charity group that you could talk to about it? That stinks that things are pushed back because he forgets.

I appreciate you reading and responding. I wasn’t expecting such a response as I received but I’m really enjoying the interaction with everyone. Health topics can really be though provoking and engaging. I love writing about them :)
