Nervous about mediation
Hi. I am getting extremely nervous about a small claims case against my old landlord. He did give me notice of keeping my security deposit in time, 68 days when in Wisconsin he has 21 days. I ended up filing a small claims case, but in this state you are required to go to medation first. I just filed the case last week, so don't know when medation will be but I am completely freaking out about it. I am very emotional and animated when I talk, and I get angry very easily. There is a very long history with him, and it is upsetting to me. I am scared to sit in a room across the table and "discuss" things with him. I am glad I will be through lesson 7 by then, but am having bad dreams about losing it in the room. I am trying to plan and practice what I will say, but you never know how a conversation will go. Any advice?
