treading lightly

Every get the feeling that you are walking on eggshells around your own self?
At any minute you will just crack, explode, cry, scream.
For some reason (even though I know I might feel better if I do..) I avoid going to those extremes. I feel like if I lost myself, spat words, threw a chair, that I would never be the same again.
Would I be better?
I don't know. I'm affraid to find out. So I continue to tip-toe around the sleeping giant within me. For how long, I don't know.
