The roof is the only pressing matter, and my parent's neighbour of 20+ years is a roofer so I feel it should be alright
also, our insurance is with a credit union so I think they're pretty responsible from what I can tell. The neighbour's insurance people were already over and done cleaning up the yard by 11am next door! (cut down half my problems as well! bonus!) See? i'm already getting help. Thanks for all the intention
Hey great that you are handling all this catalyst so well.
Seems is not even raising your blood pressure a bit!
How do we know he isn't just repressing the feelings related to the catalyst and putting on a happy face so that he can appear/believe that he's using the catalyst well?
When people have a tragedy, I'm more worried about them if they are happy, because it indicates they're repressing or dissociating from the tragedy.
A lot of people used to tell me stuff like that by the way. Something terrible would happen to me and people would be like, "Wow you're so calm and even-tempered, you really have it all figured out don't you!"
Not the case. I had my emotions under perfect control, but this was not good for me. In hindsight I believe it is healthier to feel and express the pain, to look miserable when you're really miserable, to cry when it hurts, and to get angry when God drops a fucking tree on your house. That a******. The people who say, "Well I'm just being honest, I really don't feel any pain over this" are the worst off because their acting is so good that they fool themself.
