I was having a great day. Tons of fun, great presents, hanging out with family I don't get to see often. I was totally relaxed and in my element.
Then my Dad pulled out a camera to take a group picture and I literally got sick to my stomach and had to leave. Ive been alone in my room ever since and nobody understands why. My SA includes an awful fear of having my picture taken.
I felt nauseous, dizzy, and weak. I laid down for a while and that feeling went away, then I got extremely pissed off. I grabbed my trash can and slammed it on the ground 2 or 3 times. My Dad came up and started banging on my door yelling at me.
It was great while it lasted though.

Sorry to hear, spider 
I hope the rest of your night goes okay. Hopefully your family will make it up to you. I apologize that I can't help you much, but try to hang in there
^ I am the same way with cameras. I get sooo nervous and feel sick whenever someone takes out a camera. I try to disappear whenever I can

From evening yesterday (24th) a blessing it was quiet. Quite well.

Spider, sorry to hear that. Lonely christamses, never fun
Don't mean to be ... ungrateful. I am very grateful that things seemed to turn around at the right times this year. But I'd have to say it was definitely not enjoyable.
Sisters and parents fought a lot, bringing some to tears, etc... Then after the Christmas (eve) dinner my mom had an allergic reaction to the cheese cake. After she had to lie down, and all that, her personality completely changes, she turns into this maniac evil woman... Like she'll go around insulting people and laughing, screaming "STUFF!!! STUFF!! TAKE YOUR STUFF YOU"RE JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER" when nobody even has spoken to her. It's really crazy. She drove herself to the hospital eventually because she was having a panic attack from it. She really hurt my older sister though, causing my older sister to rip apart the gift that was there for my mother.
I'm just glad to know it was an allergic reaction and that she's not reverting to some old self of hers. I'm happy that she was able to recognize this, elated even. The dinner was nice, and, visiting a grandmother who is usually very depressed/angry, she was joyful this time! That was wonderful to see... So it's been so/so.
