Tees reminds me a bit of myself having the odd outburst after a few too many. My personality is a strange one it’s always all or nothing in everything I do I’m either fully immersed or totally uninterested. I’ll find something I want to do and spend 10 hours a day on it until I’ve bored myself. If I drink it’s never just one, if I gamble it’s never just a weekend acca. I really struggle with it sometimes I was always told in school I had ADHD but my dad just batted it off as a myth and said I was naughty. Went through a bit of a rough patch last year and after the death of someone close the hospice advised me to see a counsellor and she basically reiterated what the doctors told me as a kid that I have all of the tell-tale symptoms. It’s something I’ll have to learn to live with because I’d rather not be medicated but this kind of all in mentality is the worst thing about it for me. I struggle to attach emotions to things that normal people would and often go into quite depressive states for days/weeks which has been triggered by nothing at all and then outbursts would follow. I’ve got everything in the world I could want for but sometimes just feel like I can’t be arsed anymore.
Since Covid I’d drank pretty much every night after work had a few cans but often turned into anywhere up to 10-12 as I work from home so didn’t have to be anywhere next day. Played online with my mates most nights and they’d all tell you they could tell by my voice I was getting to a stage where I’d start getting a bit pissed and they knew an argument was coming over something totally trivial because as you can probably tell I’m never wrong
Didn’t mean anything by it whatsoever and I never fell out with any of my mates over it we always laughed the next day but I realise now when I look back how much of a pain in the arse I must’ve been to live with. They just accept that it’s who I am but others wouldn’t be as forgiving and probably couldn’t be bothered with it.
