< When I feel good, I love to cook, when I feel bad I am sad I can't cook >
Yes, for me, cooking is sort of *meditation* and I would also get angry if I find myself unable to cook. (not only because that would mean, I had to eat what my partner cooks) ;o)
< When I 'get in these moods' I do too much, start getting overwhelmed and I get angry. >Reminds me of myself when I am at work. Sometimes I find myself doing 3 things at once before I realize that this is too much for me and I better stopped and have a cigarette before I go on.
< Sometimes when this 'manic' happens and I am doing too much, my spouse takes me puts me in a chair, or I go lay down and he says what do you want me to do. It is very hard for me to tell him what I need. >When I get angry (ok, let´s call it *hysteric*), exactly the same happens. I don´t know why, but in such moments, I want him to care *and* don´t want him to care, because I find it too complicated to tell him what I want. I sometimes wish, he could read my mind, so I did not need to *say* anything. But there is something, which usually never fails to make me calm down. A nice back massage! Have you ever tried that? It might take you some effort to *train* him in how to give a good massage, but it`s worth that, believe me! :o)
< Thanks for asking about me. Writing and reading these posts help me clarify my thinking. >
It`s sort of *diary*, isn`t it? Just a diary which responses to you sometimes. :o)
Take care,Micha
