This is a thread to share your frustrations.
Rules:
- Don't rant about people or situations on this forum. (If you need to do that, feel free to PM me. I can always listen to a good rant.)
- Keep the descriptions of injuries and illnesses to a graphical minimum. Some of us are eating here!
- Don't derail. Offering your sympathy is great, and sometimes a quick suggestion can help a lot, but that's not the primary purpose of this thread.
- Don't argue. This is a thread for sharing frustrations, not for debate.

Having no appetite after an anxiety attack. I know I have to eat something to keep my strength up, but at the moment I can't even stomach the thought of food.

Veph, tried tomato soup with meatballs in it? I've had the same problem lots of times, and that soup has ALWAYS been edible, regardless of my state of mind.

Sick of being heavy hearted and losing people I care about. Tired of feeling tired and alone.

Hate it when you're waiting for a ride and it's late without any heads up.

Hating that my cat opts for using the bannister as her scratching post instead of the one I bought for $20 bucks.

I get really frustrated with anyone in general when you send them a message/txt/email/facebook message and you know they read it but they chose to not reply to you. You figure maybe there busy but then time goes by and still nothing. *sigh*

My brother broke the handle of my favorite mug that's mine. This makes me sad. That's all.
Edit: Krazy Glue has been applied! Let's hope it works well.

Been forever since my family had a cat, but I do remember that wrapping and securing a piece of carpeting around whatever your cat's scratching post of choice is works wonders. Not a carpet, but a piece of actual carpeting that is used to carpet entire rooms; the latter has a tough bottom layer that will keep the claws off the woodwork. You may need to use padding beneath the carpeting to keep it from wearing away at the wood.

Not being able to put what I want to say into words when in conversations. It happens more often than not for me

Try putting cat nip on the post to encourage her to use it.

I'm irritated that I can't sleep. I've been up for about 20 hours and I should be tired! I need to sleep so I can get up early and pack so I can go out and be ready for PAX. Sigh.

Annoyed that I still can't find a decent wallpaper in 1440x900. I know what I want I just don't have any way to make it :{. But oh well, I'll try Gimp or something I think that might be able to make one.

Insomnia.
It's almost 6 am here, I have a lunch date type thing with my mum and grandmum, have to get a shower, pick out something nice, make sure the puppy will be set while we're gone - if I don't get some sleep, I'll probably start crying in the middle of the day. But I feel like I need to do something. I could play Pokemon, or read, or lay around, but then again if I go to sleep I'll sleep all day and get left behind.
I wanna go play my new Silent Hill game, but I can't until my friend comes over Friday. A light fixture falling from the ceiling in game scared me so bad I shut the PS3 off right then and haven't touched it since. :x

Irritated at my very short fused motivation to do.. Well, anything. Health problems are not exactly helping either. I just want to get better already.

The fact that I've been extremely tired/sleepy lately... Even though most of the nights I get a nice 10 hours of sleep, if not more.
It's really eating away my interest in anything - at the moment I'm just doing daily profession stuff, Heroic UP for the Blue Proto.. After that I just jump around my alts trying to decide what I feel like doing, and log off because I just don't care.
Even though I should be doing a point and click game for school and a lot other online duties I've been avoiding lately, I just don't have the energy to even start. My eyes won't stay open, but if I try to take a nap, I'll just get some extremely light sleep and wake up feeling even heavier and more confused - leading to a loss of appetite and even more staring at a wall with a blank look.

I've hit a little bit of an artblock with a piece I'm working on. Although I like the flow of the picture I'm doing, and how it's shaping to be, I'm not sure as to how I'll ink and colour it.
Asside from my pixelwork, I just feel that my photoshop linework is so... artificial. And I feel quite uncomfortable working without set linework to help me judge the edge of the subject I'm colouring. Grah. >.<

Still sick. Still in constant pain (though not as bad). Still waiting for the April appointment (APRIL! GODDAMN!) to at least maybe find out what the problem is. Seriously, I'd like to get back into doing something even kinda sorta vaguely *purposeful* on WoW. I'm about to give up on it until I can get better and play catch-up with my raiding guild.

Have you thought of checking to see if you're anemic? Lack of iron can cause that and it was an issue with a family member of mine.
Also customers who keep calling in to speak with an engineer knowing that the person doesn't get in until 9am PST ...stop calling me!
