Do you ever feel you need to take a few days to fall apart?

I just am going through that. it felt like everyone and everything was happening to me – too much, too fast and now I need to take a weekend to “fall apart”. I didn’t clean up my stuff today and I am wondering if I’ll do something “wrong” tomorrow too.

it’s just my way of saying " what about me?" it makes me wonder if us with sz are reacting to stresses or social abuses and emotional abuses by “falling apart” because we have to. in my case I never chose to fall apart bigtime the way I did at 22 years. it just happened.

does anybody h ere get my drift?

I need several hours of laziness in any day for energizing me to clean up the room for an hour.

And employer will not allow that kind of time frame. I work best in part time job- “laziness” or “state of disorganized” in the whole morning up to noon, and part time work in the afternoon.

I am new to this word “fall apart” but I think that is how I relate mine to yours.

I do feel I need to take time to decompress and recharge the energy.

I do have some glitches and off days. I try not to fall apart because it takes so long to get over.

But there are days when I have to tell my sis… this is not a good day for me… I need to go back to bed.

She’ll get that. I find too… I have a harder time when I have a long bit of time off. When I’m in the routine… I’m good…

When that routine is over… I’m lost and having a hard time.

Like J, I sometimes need a day to recharge. I don’t fall apart, rather I take the time to pull myself back together.
