Backspace therapy is good as long as you don't accidentally send it out.

My drafts folder definitely has some therapy emails written with blank To and CC fields.

this is the way.

Still too risky. Type it in Notepad++.

I can remember starting work at 6am because my backspace therapy would add that much time to my ordinarily 8am start work day.

Retirement ftw.

or "Maybe you could find someone to read this email to you until you understand it; please don't reply to me until you do."

Similar experience after taking last week off myself.
Came back and started reading emails. Had to pause and walk down to our most senior paralegal to vent. "She did WHAT on this case?!"

Sadly, some people only learn through blunt force trauma. Even if that blunt force is typed.
