how often do you have to go to the bank? maybe you can find a quiter time to go to the bank. if it opens on saturday (some bank opens on saturday until 2 AM), go on saturday.

or if you have class later on, dont go to the bank in the morning. maybe you'll feel better about going to class.

hmm.. i also have hearing sensitivity especially with people eating (slurping or chewing) and people speaking very loudly on the phone. if you have an ipod maybe you can put it on everytime you go out to loud noises so you only listen to the sound you like.

I would agree with an ipod, seems to cut all the sensory overload I get, the louder the better, also a good pair of sun glasses, mirrored aviators.

Me and CockneyRebel both had breakdowns in banks before... I think this might be common on this board. Smile And I don't believe in the concept of being a whiner. People who don't like it can leave The Haven alone. Smile

I have similiar problems. I will do awesome in my classes for two weeks, then do nothing for a week and fall way behind, then struggle to get back on track, then repeat it all over again.

Things that help me:
1. Take 5 minutes every week to make a schedule for the week for studying and assignments. Even if you stray, it's a good reminder to help get you focused.
2. When you miss a class, remind yourself that missing a class here and there is not a big deal if it's not an intentional habit. You can still get good grades if you attend 26/30 sessions of a class.
3. Meditate ... breathe ... in ... out ... in ... out. There will always be times during the semester when everything is due during the same week as every professor is giving quizzes or exams, etc... ... Breathe ... if you maintain focus, you will get through it.

I remember the breakdown that I've had at my bank. It was last October, after my mum payed me out, because she was being a bitch, with selective hearing. If I would have kept my mouth shut, that morning, she wouldn't have given me that money that I didn't want, and I wouldn't have her bank book around my place, as a reminder. The worst thing is, that my mum saw the whole thing happen. I want to get a job, and I promise myself, that I will be giving her money to put in my secret account, and I hope that she becomes ticked off, to the point of wanting her bank book, back. I've nearly committed suicide, that day. I've also had some nasty Nightmares, that night, as well. I can't wait to start working. I want to put that woman, in her place. I didn't know that I had to have my mum with me, for that hag to put $300 of that money, back in my mum's account. I cringe, every time that I have to walk up to the tellers, because of the memories that I still have, of that horrible morning. I really hope that things improve, soon.
