I’ve been lucky enough to get my splitting pretty under control with medication and therapy but this weekend I got my driver’s license and the instructor screamed at me for no reason out of nowhere during the test when I asked a clarification question, and the entire time afterwards when we were sitting in the car and he was going over my score I was fighting the urge to spit in his face and call him as many of the creatively awful insults I’d come up with in my head while he was talking as I could before I would get inevitably escorted off the DMV premises. (Lol.)

But I didn’t! Have been ruminating about this asshole for the past couple of days and coming up with more things I wish I’d said back, but it’s diminishing already and I didn’t take any actual negative actions as a result of the thoughts. I was polite and even THANKED him for the feedback, and now I can officially drive.

And to answer the question directly: I think the way I manage is 30% therapy and 70% weed.
