How to do something stupid and make it okay?
Oh god, I'm such a f-ing knob-end.
At the moment I'm living/ working on a remote project. And this week we've had building work in our house so there's just me and my boss still living here, with a lot of builders. In the past when I cut or felt like it, I'd go and talk to my housemate who was amazing. But she's moved out now. So this evening I was feeling like arse and I cut and then my instinct said 'go talk to Steph' but she wasn't here so I went to the only person available - my boss. It's not as bad as it sounds, he's only 4 or 5 years older and he was very understanding but what's he supposed to think when I crash into his bedroom with blood running down my arm, sobbing incoherrently and unable to tell him exactly what's wrong. I'm so going to get fired, or at least get the worst reference in history. (Prob won't get fired as they'd have a job convincing anyone else to work here!) But it's not good and I don't know how I can recitfy this.
So, my question is, have any of you ever admitted how bad you felt, and then had to go back on it, smooth it over and make it sound like nothing? How did you do that? How can I make this all go away? How can I convince him that I'm okay?
Any answers appreciated.
Thanks xx
