...I've always been a storm. (Fleetwood Mac)
Sometimes I feel like the storm in my head is going to swamp me. I wonder if I am ever going to be calm. Outwardly, everything seems to be fine, like I have no worries or cares and can handle anything. Inside...the storm blows. Some days it's only a slight rain shower. Many days it's a severe thunderstorm. And then there are those days like today when its a Category 5 hurricane. I wonder what I look like to people on those days. Can anyone tell the inner turmoil I am experiencing? Do I hide it well enough? Does the stress show. If so, why doesn't anyone try to help? Can't you hear me screaming?? How can you not?
