OK... so I switched to v2.5 for two weeks (not sure if it was 13 days or 14). Now I'm back to v2.4 (since the night of 28th Oct).
The transition period felt very good. As if the effects of v2.5 and v2.4 were overlapping. One day after switching back to v2.4 I got a $7.5 sandwich for $4.5. They guy said it was cut in half so he would charge me for the price of a smaller one. Now two things: I'm a straight male and this discount was given by another male, so a bit confused. Is it the respect from guys thing?
Anyway, some of the symptoms I experience while the first run of v2.4 (e.g. strange front of the face headache - in eye/forehead region, pain in shoulder/neck area, vision issues - difficulty in seeing things up close) are back with lesser intensity, though. I'll keep an eye out to see if it gets too much.
On emotional front, I've been extremely frustrated dealing with people at work. There was a lot of politics going on. I decided to confront the people (two women) instead of complaining to the manager. I think this is a bit of a change. I like it... because I felt like I was shying away from confrontation a bit. Not sure if it was some fear or something else.
One of the women accused me of attacking her. I think I need to be able to smile on the outside even if I'm seething on the inside. I also realise that going through improvements in life will probably not going to be a piss in the park. I may go through extreme stress and tough times. Hopefully, I'll come out better in the end.
But then, I recently read on one of the journals where someone posted (was it Shannon) that we don't necessarily have to suffer and go through pain to grow (something on those lines). It will be ideal, if that's possible - instructed by sub, being put into positions where we learn by observing others in circumstances which may help improve us.
