I told my T that I have been hiding in my car at lunch again because I need to be completely alone and even the public library is too noisy and busy. She's worried because it's around 9 degrees outside and she's afraid I will freeze. I told her I run the heater a little bit and cover with blankets.
She suggested I wear a walkman (I don't have an ipod) and listen to a book on CD at the library. I guess I could try that, but there would still be people around. I really just want to be completely alone.
It's probably more depression related than sensory defensive related, but I just don't want to be around anyone. I want to isolate from everyone, but I have to go to work as I need the paycheck and if I stay in the office during lunch there is always someone else there. I can't hide in the ladies room as it's for the entire floor of office suites. I will give the walkman a try, maybe I can close my eyes.
