Emotional distress is categorized according to the intent of the person or company responsible for inflicting harm. There are two types of emotional distress. These include negligent infliction of emotional distress and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Negligent infliction: The responsible party exhibited negligent behavior that caused distress. Intentional infliction: The responsible party demonstrated outrageous behavior that caused distress. Negligent infliction of emotional distress happens when the one party's negligent behavior causes distress. The emotional distress must be the result of physical injury caused by the person you are suing. For instance, you might be able to sue for emotional distress if you saw an accident that killed a loved one. You must have suffered emotional issues afterwards. Intentional infliction of emotional distress happens when one party's outrageous behavior causes distress. In this case, you must prove that the other party intentionally or recklessly demonstrated outrageous and extreme conduct. Physical injury must also be a factor. For example, your neighbor started a fire on purpose in your garage with the intent to kill you. If you started having panic attacks that led to fainting, you might have a case. In this type of situation, the physical injury is a direct result of emotional distress. But if an employer screams and makes threats at an employee, this might not count as outrageous conduct. Even if it's rude and insensitive, it might not count as emotional distress.

Q: A butter knife is ideal, but you may also use a putty knife or a razor with an attached guard. Hold the blade flat against the surface and slowly slide the knife over it to scrape off the residue. Be gentle to avoid scratching the surface. If you're worried about scratches, skip scraping. Dampen the cloth with isopropyl rubbing alcohol from the medical section at any drug or general store. Make sure the cloth is clean and soft to avoid damaging the surface you're treating. Then, gently rub the cloth back and forth over the area until the adhesive comes off. The combination of the rubbing alcohol and friction from rubbing will remove most of it. Acetone or nail polish remover may be used instead, but are more likely to damage painted surfaces. Place about a tablespoon of liquid dish detergent in two cups of water and stir until the mixture is bubbly. Then, dip a soft cloth into the soapy water and use it to gently scrub the residue. Keep rubbing the area until it no longer feels slippery or sticky to the touch. Any gentle or medium-strength soap can be used. Avoid ones that are designed for grease and other tough stains. Rub the surface with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb the water. The surface should no longer feel rough or sticky from the residue.
A: Scrape the residue off with a dull blade. Soak a soft cloth in rubbing alcohol and rub at the area. Scrub the area with a mixture of dish soap and warm water. Dry the surface with a cloth.

This may entail extending the term of your loan relative to the original, or paying a slightly higher interest rate.
