Difficult days

Oakling

I am experiencing a difficult day for reading people today. It’s an incredibly busy and challenging day at work today full of change. So much change that I can’t keep up and I don’t have to words to ask for help. As a result of the millions of plates I’m trying to keep spinning, I am completely unable to read peoples faces/intentions and am struggling with just about every interaction with another person. I do struggle with this area quite a lot, but it seems very prominent today.

Does anyone else experience days that are a lot harder than others? If so, what do you do to navigate it? I feel like I’m fighting a bit of a meltdown at the moment.

  • I'm sorry your finding things difficult today. I do relate. Some days I wake up and things come easy and other days it's so hard I don't know what to do and feels like I won't be able to do it again, like going to the shops or actually eating something. 

    When this happens I try to tell myself to keep calm and remember that it will be better soon. It can help to reassure me. 

    I hope your ok and can avoid a meltdown.

    Sending you positive vibes.

    Thank you for your response and your kind words. I can entirely understand what you mean about waking up and finding things difficult that would usually be fairly simple. I experience this every now and again, today must be one of those days.

    Although I also think that the hectic mess of the day and the relentless changes that I had to adapt to, took quite the toll. I can’t keep up with changes in the way that many others seem be able to. Many people at work know that I find this difficult, but some days it can’t be helped.

    I made it back from work meltdown free. I’m not out of the woods yet so to speak, but I made it and that is something I should feel proud of. I ended up finding a quiet space for a few moments and listened to some of my music. The change of scene gave me enough refocus to make it through the rest of the work day. Now just to make it through the evening.
