People, Places, Things That Upset Me

People, Places and things can upset me to no end.

I hate bank of america online banking. I just found out because of a holiday there policy is not the next business day but, the previous day which means all of my bill payment will be posted on this friday and not on monday or tuesday when i get paid :eek: Oh my goodness. I don't have overdraft and there is a nominal fee for insufficient funds ($35.00).

for a normal person this would not be a big deal. It is for me i am an alcoholic!

I work myself up into a frenzy just like in the old days when i was drinking. Thank GOD it started to hurt and i got myself to a meeting after arguing with the bank about the injustice to ME.

Actually the girl said something that made me check myself. "why our you so upset the funds will not come out till friday and might not and today is monday".

So with fear in my heart and all that other turmoil i can stir up in my chest because things did not go my way i went to a meeting. I got to listen to a 14 month sober person talk about how he was afraid of doing a ninth step the next day. As he shared i look in his eye's. That something was there. It was awesome to sit with him after the meeting and i was able to forget about my little problem for a moment. I slept well last night.

it tells me in the Big Book that worldly clamors and turmoil will blot out your conscious contact with your Higher Power.

for the last nine months i had enough money for what i needed and wanted. I had some awesome shopping sprees this year. I believe in a Higher Power and have Faith. I get scared like a child. I Start jumping up and down causing a ruckus because i feel UNCOMFORTABLE with the situation that i'm experiencing sober for the first time.

I'm powerless over alcohol and my life is unmanageable by me. that include bank of america :P

It is my opinion that they are a fee orientated bank.

That's all i got.

I am an alcoholic ...The only one who needs to really know that is me!

My work cell phone just stop working. So i called the help line to get it fix. Go figure the next day at work im in trouble for not going through the chain of command. My attitude came back ( if there is a fire and i suppose to call you first to get permission to put it out). It has been like 4 days without my work cell phone. It feels like there messing with me.

Now that is where the diesease kicks in "It feels like"

People places and things.. My Cell Phone, The A## that is my Production Manager that i cant stand.

1. I want what iwant and i want it now.... That's childish and it is a free phone.. No phone, No Work..giggles get to take longer to do my work.

2. Just can't stand the guy he is a weasel in my mind.... Pray fpr him like it says in the Big Book. "perhaps this person is Spiritual Sick" .

It just a cell phone and another human being. I can make it into so much more..The Drama

How can i be helpful in the situation?

My bother is an alcoholic, and it really has changed our relationship.

And I do agree that online banking is super frustrating.

      Congratulations on getting the go ahead with HRT. I'm so ready for my wife to drop her opposition. As for the mood swings... I would look forward to them myself.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Three reprimands and they suspend attendance for a couple weeks. 
    • Mmindy
      Good for the other participant. What's involved in a reprimand? At our age, what are they going to do? Withhold snacks...   @BirdieI'm sorry you have to put up with such discrimination's. I'm proud that you're standing up for yourself.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Associating LGBTQIA+ with pedophilia or "grooming" is a conspiracy theory as old as the study of psychiatry (mid-19th century) when early "scientists" theorized that homosexuality was caused by childhood trauma of having been molested by older men. Some of us have moved on and become educated since those days, but conspiracy theories have an uncanny staying power...the "power" of ignorance, including the titillation of scandal. There is some psychology about people being attracted to outrage and fear. Life is naturally dynamic and uncertain. Unless you have developed a transcendent mastermind, most people have some level of discomfort with that. Therefore, it is weirdly comforting to target a particular thing as a threat and to make a big fuss about it, whether or not it has any credence. And it is comforting to be one among a mass who are equally outraged about a thing, whether or not the thing is real. It is also boosts the ego to speak with vehement "authority" about a thing that is a known trigger for the masses. Like Vicky said, Dunning-Kruger Effect.   However prominent a movement there is or not of pedophiles claiming that their perversion is a sexuality (I have heard of that, but never as it being a major influence), it is the case that much of the viral spread of disinformation associating LBGTQIA+ with pedophilia is due to online trolls. Surely, there are loads of 'em. But here's just one reported story. https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/posing-gay-men-twitter-troll-goes-viral-attempts-falsely-tie-n954721

      Another interesting day at the day-centre....   Another participant called me "sweet cheeks" and we both got reprimanded for inappropriate behavior. 🙄

      She stood at the world's edge, awaiting judgment Isolation judged to be an insufficient burden The skies above required a hand, precisely two To keep the heavens high and keep the vaulted sky from crushing you She bent her knee and gritted teeth, awaiting weight Mentally preparing mind and body for the grimmest fate. Her head was bent, the firmament so hard to hold, Her back against the wall and braced against a fall And all that matters is she never ever drop it There she stands.  If they weren't full, her head would be in her hands. Heroes they came, from far and from wide to gawk at the girl who held up the sky.

      Lets get this topic back on track folks.  Please spell out your acronyms for your specific meaning of the letter combinations and then re-read your own typing before hitting the send button.  We are here to be supporting each other and not stomping on someone's last nerve.  In the past we have used our DWF (Dirty Word Filter) to interpret certain acronyms and then the members were begging us to delete the posts for them one or two leaving with injured feelings.  Community Rules 7 (about posts being in clear English and Rule 8 (being suitable for people under 18) can come into play here. Thank you.

      I could be described, I suppose, as a RWNJ.   A little stereotyping seems to be going on.  Don't complain about Trans stereotypes if you turn around and stereotype others.  A lot of RWNJs are actually decent people and get called that by people who pick up on one or two alleged beliefs.  I would rather single out influential individuals of whatever camp and call them to correction.   Trans folk are a small minority, even as small minorities go.  There are probably a lot more RWNJs running around than there are trans folk.

      They cut a lot of trees here as well.  A lot of them toward the coast end up chipped up and sent to Europe to burn in power plants.  That bothers me, seems like a dumb idea.

      Most likely.   Unfortunately this was expected.  I expect it will be the norm in any GOP controlled state that hasn't already done it.  So much effort expended against so few.  I certainly haven't seen my area being overrun by trans kids.   And yeah, I fully expect them to go after my HRT next. I think those that are railing against us are much more dangerous than some non-binary high school sophomore.

      Her name is Sunny and she is so much fun. But, as you said @KymmieL, it is a challenge with a new puppy. Thankfully our 13 year old Lab is taking the addition in stride and being supremely tolerant.
