My Mood

My mood's been quite good lately, mainly because of my diet changes that are giving me a noticeable difference to my health (I feel like I can move more, I feel bouncier somehow), but it can still be easy to upset me.

I got really worried about one of my online friends (who I actually got to meet in person last year). She's had a health issue and had to have a surgical procedure for it.  So when she said she was feeling loads of pain today, of course I got worried.

I wanted to cry, but my Dad was nearby and I didn't want to explain why. But later, when playing games with my other online friends, I got really stressed out over a silly thing (the RNG kept on not choosing me to have a turn choosing something before the game ended). I just really wanted to be satisfied, but I didn't want to keep playing the same game. In the end,we settled for one more game where we'd finish it early after I got my turn.

These online friends of mine (again, some of which I've been lucky enough to meet in person) are very understanding and tolerate me a lot more than my family would. I don't quite understand why. Am I meant to understand why?
