Please don't be nice to me right now

Ever get to the point where you are so overwhelmed by something going on in your life that you have inappropriate emotional responses? I am there right now. I am stressed. Very stressed. Lots of things contribute to this. I also am not the best at dealing with stress. Never have been.

So in the middle of my meeting with my principal I nearly lost it. This was not about something bad. Actually, it was the principal telling me how wonderful I am doing. I almost could not handle nice comments.

I have been reduced to tears when family members express concern about me or ask how I am.

so, while I don't think I can handle someone being mean, nice is not working either. I need neutral. Or maybe a lobotomy. Or a vacation.
