I’m unable to tell you what it feels like to be “a little” mad. My emotions work as if controlled by a light switch. I’m either fine or I’m out of control. I once spilled a container of thumbtacks and got as angry at myself as I did when I screwed up my relationship with my high school sweetheart. If I’m under the impression that there are Golden Grahams in my cupboard, then realize that there in fact are none, there’s a high probability I’ll be as sad as I was at my grandfather’s funeral.In other words, my reactions aren’t in proportion to the things I’m reacting to. It’s something I’ve been working on with a very lovely shrink for the past few years.But against the 4Skins one day, all that hard word went out the window.
