Work

Posted by Dinah on September 12, 2002, at 20:31:15

I don't know how long I'm going to be able to go into the office. I had been working at home. I'm taking Klonopin to keep my level of overstimulation down, but the noise and lights and people and calls are really getting to me. Sometimes I seem to be able to handle it, but right now I don't seem to be able to.

I've got my cuticle scissors in an easily accessible portion of my purse, because I just don't know if I'm going to need to self injure. So far the Klonopin has been working to keep me from needing to do that, but just barely.

I try the breathing and even a bit of meditation, but then the phone rings or someone comes in. Demands are contradictory and insistent. And I just can't seem to filter it, or even to sort it out in a meaningful way.

Of course, I am tired now. Even the Klonopin isn't helping my sleep enough and insomnia has been worrying at my brain. Perhaps if the sleep problem were solved, I'd have more resilience at work. Or maybe the cacophany at work is feeding the insomnia.

A buzzy, overstimulated,
Dinah
