A bit sad/ possible ADHD subject.

Sometimes I will impulsively say stuff but I always try to be kind and if I do say something that isn’t the best manners it’s never on purpose and I’ll beat myself up afterwards for days. I try to be careful but today I had a competition and won an award so I had a bit of adrenaline going with a lack of sleep. It was a scholarship award from getting first place so you get money from it but really doing the competition is so expensive you don’t actually GET money. So I jokingly made a comment and another teacher made a comment but before she could finish I sad oh yea no I know what you mean. I meant it to be in a light hearted way as I was in a pretty good mood from winning the award so I know there’s no way I said it with an attitude. I mean I can’t see myself but I don’t feel like I did. She got upset and said shut up don’t talk to me like that you don’t even know what I’m saying. Now after the award I have been crying because I feel horrible for interrupting and also aggressively being told to shut up.

I'm sorry this happened. I think she was already in an intense and sensitive emotional state so literally anything could have set her off, you were just the unfortunate victim of her misplaced rage. You didn't do anything malicious or ill intended. It's the difference between bumping into someone by accident and causing them to fall intentionally. One is an accident and the other is an immoral act. You didn't intend to hurt her through your interruption. I know it's not easy to brush things like this off easily but I hope you feel better.
