Moasi, I have been wanted to do this Master-Cleanse and have been reading a lot of the posts. I have read almost all of your posts and went back to read some again after your complaint about the forum folks response to an email you wrote trying to persuade people to research the Master-Cleanse before asking questions.

Does this cycle seem familiar?:
At first you seem innocent, eager to learn and help.
Then once you've gotten your groundings you take on an air of superiority over those who do not have the knowledge that you do - suddenly you're an expert.
You become intolerant of the queries that you once had and instead of deciding it's not your place to do so, attack the naive out of intolerance instead of trying to give them the guidance you once received or letting another more patient individual deal with them.
Then, when called on your behavior, you get defensive and take on the stance of a victim.
Once you've gotten the reassurance you need from those who are blind to your vicious cycle, you then feel empowered and once again everything becomes about you, and aren't you great for perservering.

Maybe you need therapy to break your behavior that thrives on either self-aggrandizing back patting or being a victim.

I think you know what I'm talking about and I think you need to be able to more appropriately react to the people you're interacting with and not simply cast your sublimeness on them with those deaf ears of yours.

You may yet find happiness if you delve into your issues.

Actually I'm a school nurse and I happen to be in a clinic with bathroom facilities for the first time in my school nurse career. I triage kids so on a less busy day the clinic actually does not have kids in it for brief periods of time and I can sneak to the bathroom. I cannot even imagine how a teacher could handle all the bathroom breaks.

I had the same emotional meltdown, except it happened at home. When your focus isn't on food, there are lots of other things to keep you occupied. Things are mending and all will be well.

As a fellow teacher I just wanted to give you some advice. When my principal or anyone else in the building has some smart comment to make, I just say "f-em" While this is probably not emotionally cleansing, it helps me a whole lot. This school is not my life. I love the kids---but I just work here. Keep on rolling-and leave work at work. 23 days to do.
