I had one time in my life where I dealt with severe pain for just under six months. I'm not an angry person at all but for about three of those months I started having anger issues. It's not something I have ever had an issue with. It is so important sometimes to recognize we are dealing with people. People who are often at different places in life. It can be hard to do sometimes as respect goes by the wayside. I'm very guilty of forgetting respect. I do try to reflect. Any issues I have ever had in my life are extremely minor to many people here who have courageously shared. It's an aspect I thought was worth mentioning and I appreciate your kind post.
