Mid meltdown

Post Reply New Topic

I have been in shutdown since Saturday night. I can't take it anymore. The tiniest things are tipping me into out of control overwhelm and I am heading straight into meltdown. Nothing seems to be helping. None of the usual things that I do to ground myself- they are all too much stimulation. Every instinct in me is to attack myself. To punch myself all over, throw myself against walls and SCREAM!! !! I go in a dark room and it is still too bright, too loud, too.... everything. Because it is in my head. The noise and the light and the chaos. I am out of ideas and need this to end.

Hope you pull through quickly. What was the prime mover?

A weighted blanket does miracles. Even for your state of mind. If you do not have a weighted blanket you can go under a twin mattress, just do not cover your head with it.

My life changed drastically after getting my weighted blanket... Hope you get better soon!

went to the doctor in much the same state
He told me inositol, melatonin, and magnesium citrate-so far so good.

I don't know any practical advice I could give you, except to say keep communicating here and I really hope this passes soon.

Have you been getting a lot of sleep? I felt like that before when i was having other issues & couldn't sleep much due to stress & things on my mind
