I can do it... I know I can, I just need to panic and cry a lit bit first

Discussion

You know those situations you can't avoid or say no to? Like, you're an adult, you just have to do it. There's no postponing it.

Sometimes, I need to have my little panic-and-breakdown moment first. I allow myself to feel really down, cry, freak out completely while I'm by myself, and just let it all out. Then I wash my face and do what I have to do.

Basically, I give myself a little tantrum by myself, like a toddler would, for a couple of hours… and then I act like the adult I am supposed to be and just do it.

I was just wondering if anyone else reacts like this to certain situations. You know, things you REALLY DON'T WANT TO DO, but you have no choice, so you need to have your little moment first, and then somehow pull yourself together and get through it… even though you're absolutely NOT happy about it... :/
