Hi,
I am in a really bad way at the moment, I get these really deep spells with my anxiety and depression. What is triggering it is something I am sure many will find trivial, but I just can't settle myself.
My social worker gave me goal of selling some things. There were a couple of things I purchased earlier in the year, but lost receipt. Anyway I thought I was ask the store to see if they would give me a credit note. From a lengthy discussion over email, I was told manager agreed to give credit note at lowest price which I asked to confirm in an email.
When I returned them to the store, the manager was awkward, so I came pre-prepared with printout of the email, as I know I would find it difficult. She asked me when I bought them, I said with past three months. So she then decided to deduct a further value because of some promotion which was on which I never used.
It really affected me badly, and I didn't know what to do. I was furious, then I decided the price was too low and to leave it. Then I discovered the manager when she checked the item had not been careful handling them, and had holed the box of the back of one item. I collect these and condition is critical, I carefully placed both on the desk to check.
I asked if they would replace that set, but was refused. I didn't know what to do, in the end I felt I had no choice but to accept the lower value. I was so angry because I had gone to great lengths to check everything with customer services before hand, and they had already discussed it with this manager who responded I would receive credit for lowest value, which I asked her to confirm.
She made some odd comment that I was not giving her much information, but I had explained everything in an email in great detail.
I am worried about how deeply this had affected me, after leaving the store, I went to do my grocery shopping. At one point I felt like I was just going to collapse. I just got more anxious and couldn't cope. I drove home, just shouting all the way back, and didn't realise until it was too late that I was in a speed camera area, and was driving at wrong speed, just after i passed camera.
I know this is something trivial to a lot of people, I have many other problems which are more serious. I can logically see that, but my feelings are totally disjointed.
