Feel completely overwhelmed

[ApplesCrumbleButtons]

I'm having a neurodivergent shutdown. I just wish it wasn't so hard.

Sorry to hear this. What does a shutdown like this involve ? What have you done previously to manage it - if that’s possible.

Hope you feel better soon

It means I can't verbally articulate. I can't verbally articulate the problem, how I got here, what to do. My brain won't more forward either. I also want some kind of escape route from this life. I'm drowning at work - tomorrow for example I know people are expecting things I haven't done. As soon as I have that thought my brain shuts down and won't let me find a solution. It feels like a train landing in my head and I want out.

I'm erring on getting signed off for stress. It won't help things long term though.

Bump

Think you probably should get signed off. Bit of breathing space at least.
