Someone remind me that having a complete meltdown abouit how much pain I'm in and how useless I feel won't actually do me any good.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
sj, sometimes you need to have a meltdown. Your feelings are valid, and if having a meltdown is how you express those feelings, then melt down.
Being all stoic and stiff-upper-lippy about *real* pain is what won't actually do you any good.
Also? You are NOT useless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Like Steph said--sometimes a meltdown is its own point.
I'm so frazzled and wound up right now I'd love a meltdown. Or a Valium. Something. I just...I got an important call this morning, which got disconnected, and it's a big government organisation whose phone lines keep telling me they're overloaded so call back some other time. I'd wait on hold for ages, I swear, if they'd just let me.
This is my life they're fucking with.
Ahem.
Better now.
Congrats to Sparky on the new baby! Go team!

Hubby's been having bad days. He's getting what is essentially carpal tunnel surgery on his elbows in the next few weeks because he can't hold on to things anymore. He tried to cook dinner last night and couldn't hold on to the utensils. His thumbs just don't work anymore.
Pain is very wearying. Sometimes it all just hits you with a hammer of exhaustion, and no right-thinking person would blame you for taking a break from coping.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

ita, that sucks. I wish I could shove a valium through the internets to you.
I could use a mild relaxant right now. I had a job interview a couple of hours ago for a job I really really want. I think the interview went well, but you know you never really know. I'm supposed to hear back from them before 7pm tonight whether they want to schedule a second interview. I'm really glad it's moving forward so fast, but now I get to wait impatiently for a phone call that I will hopefully get. My nerves may not last another 4 hours.

Thanks everyone. When I can't even get through a simple shopping trip to Target, I certainly feel useless and that I shouldn't want or don't deserve to have the life I want, like having children. I'm hiding in bed for now.
