Hey everybody,
I'm reeally confused/frustrated/mad..I keep having really bad practices.. Well, I get mad at myself for not doing something right or not making a skill (giants in particular) and I CRY...AND CRY.. I can't help it.. Then my coach gets mad at me and yells at me and sometimes makes me sit on the bench which makes it even worse.. For some reason, I just can't handle talking to my coach when I get in trouble for my attitude. I can calm myself down, but then once she comes over to talk to me I can't help it. I start crying.. I don't really get mad at my coach or anyone else when I mess up.. I just get frustrated and mad at myself. I can't help it.. I just cry.. Nothing makes me feel better.. When I'm mad that I'm not doing something right I have to get up there and FIX IT. If I don't I feel like a failure. Like on my giants.. If I don't make them and my coach tells me it's time to rotate.. I'll start crying. My coaches have the habit of saying ''You're done.'' when they want us to rotate and those words make me feel HORRIBLE. All I want to do is stay on bars until I make them. And that's what my coach let me do on Monday.. no tears But yes, I know I can't stay on bars for an extra 20 minutes every day ): ughh it's frustrating.. My coach says I'm on a plateau right now.. I don't exactly know what that means but I think it meqans I'm not improving.. FAILURE.. I know gymnastics is supposed to be fun but lately it hasn't been. I wish my coaches would understand that I just want them to GO AWAY when I'm having an attitude.. I'm not mad at tthem.. I'm mad at myself and there not going to make it better.. The only way I ever feel better is when I finally make the skill.. Which I'm not always capable of doing... okay well thank you for reading this vent HELP ME!
