Hi everyone, i’m struggling with meltdowns from being overwhelmed and exhausted atm, and i’m finding one person close to me really struggles to deal with me when i’m having one. They really do try their hardest, but i don’t think they understand fully, even though i’ve explained so many times what my meltdowns are. They are calm at the beginning (first 5 minutes) but then lose their patience with me and get upset themselves (which i understand in a way as it’s a complicated thing) but i’ve tried to explain they need to stay calm and reassure me but they can’t seem to ever keep calm through a whole meltdown, to the point i’m now very nervous of meltdowns as i’m scared of upsetting them, and the whole situation being more dramatic then it has to be. Does anyone either relate to this, have and ideas or tips?
thank you in advance
