Does anyone have extreme emotional breakdowns? How do you recover. I’m going through a particularly stressful and isolating situation at work, and have been so stressed that I’ve made myself physically ill. My coworkers have been awful to me for several months, and it’s now reached the tipping point.
Everyone thinks I’m just a psycho as I’m walking all over this giant building looking for a safe space and someone to talk to. Unfortunately everyone is busy and working…or they’re part of the issue so they won’t help and will gladly poke at me to see if I’ll actually just catch on fire.
I keep thinking of Eva on Survivor telling Joe that she needs someone to hold her hands tightly so that she can calm down. I wish I knew what I needed. I’m 43, late diagnosed…so this has been my whole life of overreacting and not understanding or knowing how to calm down. It’s been over a week of constant crying, headaches, not sleeping. I hate being touched, but I would kill for a giant bear hug right now.
