I'm glad you are able to monitor it, and call for help when needed. That's a very useful skill in dealing with these things.
I'm not doing as well as I might wish. The added stress of my brother's leaving has affected me more than I would like, leaving me feeling hopeless about my ability to cope and continue to keep up with my job and family. (Because he currently lives at my parents' home and helps with my parents.)
And the dissociation is getting worse. I scared and disoriented myself (and i think scared my therapist a bit too) with the extent of it. I just got back, and boy does my head hurt. Does it make you feel sick and dizzy too? I call it whooshing a bit too fast. :)
As soon as my husband comes home and takes over childcare, I'll take one of my power naps, which will hopefully settle things down.
Here's to both of us feeling better soon.
