Do You Ever Wanna Run Away . . .

Yes, often. I go running, and it helps tremendously. I've been running for 27 years now. Not very far or very fast, but regularly. In fact, I'm going to shut off this computer and go right now...

I do wonder what I'll do with those feelings if a time comes that I can't physically run anymore. But the age record for a marathon is now 100, so there...

"Everyday I fight a war against the mirror
I can't take the person starin' back at me
I'm a hazard to myself
Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else "

Yeah.... apparently most of us feel this way from time to time, since Pink did rather well with that song.

Personally, I annoy myself ALL the time. SO irritating. Because no matter WHERE you go, there you are. :P

Yes. I've had/have this. But it didn't used to pass, I just wanted (and I did) run, and run, and run.

Finally, I had to stop running and face my Self and my damage. Which, for me, will hopefully be an on going process. Now I don't want to run as often or for as long.

No, your not alone.

I used to feel like this, but haven't since I started anti depressants

Usually when I am going in all directions I get super annoyed and bug myself. I try to stop and think about what really is important, go for a nice quiet walk, or sit and read a book to calm myself down. Hang in there..this too shall pass. :)

Ummm...

I want cheryl to 'time' HER feeling like this so she can come HERE and 'clean like a banshee'!! lol

I am the opposite...I 'let things go' til I am ready to re group...usually does not take long!

Best luck!

Yes!!!! Especially around my period.. I can be a total b**ch with a very short fuse~ (mainly with my poor husband)....

I feel that way much too often unfortunately. I love my family and I know that I am blessed but sometimes life just gets to be too much sometimes. And yep, it's usually when I am pmsing....LOL

Yep, I let everyone's needs get to me sometimes, and I think I'm bad because I can't keep up with all of them and FIX them, so it makes me want to run away from myself. It usually passes pretty quickly... do something nice for someone and you can live with yourself again.

Have lots of cocktails with the girls and go to bed! You may not feel the best the next day but drinks and sleep usually helps me get away.

Gotta agree with Sue W. I took up running a year ago & LOVE it! I run from myself & everyone every other day now, and am soooooo, soooo glad I found this outlet. I put on my zune & just go go go! :-) Your not alone in this!

I do!
And from everyone in my inner circle at times.

Calgon, take me away.
