Struggling

My anxiety has lessened, but now I feel extremely tired. I spent most of the weekend in bed, because I had no energy. I’m just confused about some of my feelings. I’m feeling a isolated on my team at work. They’ve noticed that I’m stimming and struggling with sensory issues, they think that it’s funny.

Today, someone ask the team if they want a drink. I know it’s a small thing but I had to ask that they ask me directly in future. 

Most of the team don’t know about this, which is hard because there have been moments where I’ve come close to a meltdown or shutdown.

sorry for the rant.

  • I get that. and Im sure its called adrenal fatigue, look it up, its caused by so much stress for too long. I get it at work a lot and like you its usually about things that others wouldn't think twice about but the stuff I should get stressed about I just seem to get on with. Mine is always around my colleagues and usually at lunch time when I feel I have no control because its not work related. I stim by biting my nails, too the quick.  I'm under a disciplinary at the moment and Im sure I'll be down to my knuckles by the time its over!
