There's a lot to be said for letting it all hang out.

After my little bingle this afternoon I gave myself a bit of time to scatter and then regather my wits before facing peak hour traffic to drive home. I sat in my car and after a bit did a spot of shaking and crying. A bit of deep breathing was required on the way home, but once in the safety of casa mia I just let go and let myself have a damn good cry. Wobblies were chucked with complete abandon. Go stress hormones, go!

And now I feel completely fine (actually a lot better than this morning - I think I purged some residual stress in the face of something nice and obvious to stress at). I feel quite able to face the paperwork and whatever needs to be done, and I no longer feel like cancelling everything under the sun in my immediate future.

So yes, it was a tiny carpark collision, but at the time it was the most important thing in my little universe and I let it be and let it run. Now the experience has gone back in its little inconvenience box where it belongs*.

My therapist would be so proud of me :P

(*) Remind me of that once I start bitching about the paperwork.
