The automatic checkout at the grocery store gets me, I just can't get it right. It is always yelling at me telling me to put something in my bag when I have not rung anything thing up. I get so tense.

Every now and then I get freaked out when checking out at a restaurant. If I don't have my glasses on I can't see the receipt well, so I am trying to focus on the numbers, then sometimes I just go blank. Yes, I can do percentages in my head, but with the people behind me and not being able to see...if I am having a bad day, I have been known to just freeze. So embarrassing.

Andrew, maybe he said what he said to control you. Try and do what is best for you! Not to prove anything. I had to learn that too. My Dad would tell me I never loved my mother (who died when I was 13 and we think he killed) and that I failed my sister (who does not agree). Controlling people know our triggers and use them.
