Nervous breakdown due to the weather
The weather, or to be more exact the weather that could be, is really scaring me. I don’t know how you handle it. Say “tornado watch” or “severe thunderstorm”, and you scare the hell out of me. Every time something like this occurs, I’m on the edge of having a nervous breakdown.
Earlier this day I actually wondered what’s wrong with me. I could have chosen to go somewhere else to study, but I chose Stillwater. It’s not like it’s a secret that the state of Oklahoma has a lot of tornados. In the same time, people wouldn’t live here if it was that dangerous, right? Or are people, including me, that stupid?
I know that it is not as bad as I think it is, but people have told me stories and given me “survival tips”. Like, if I’m outside when a tornado comes, I should go under a bridge. And that if I have a belt, I can tie the belt around myself and something stable. But, I mean… Oh my god. Its times like this that make me miss Sweden. A tornado? Nope. An earthquake? Nope. A severe thunderstorm? Well, they are not really that severe. Ok, it’s not as warm as it is here and we do have rainy summers. Still, that’s way better then knowing there’s a chance a tornado will come.
