we just want to sleep tonight

You know those days where you just feel lost? The kind of days when as long as you stay away from your emotional maelstrom you're okay- but as soon as you get close to it, you get sucked in? And talking about it only seems to make it worse and worse, whether you're talking about it logically or just bitching? And the only result is you getting pulled farther in, making you feel even more out of control? And the maelstrom, it spins you around so much you're disoriented, unaware of what's right and left or up and down, which makes it even harder to deal with?

Yeah. I hate days like this.
