(((Purple))),

I agree with Seeker in that you are describing PTSD symptoms. I have gone through that myself and I like quiet too and I get angry bouts myself and just the way you are discribing if I am having to think about too many things all at once.

I wondered the same thing about a nervous break down. Are you in therapy now?
I think you said you were struggling to find a therapist. Is there anything you want to talk about here that we can listen and validate?

I am sorry that you are struggling with this, I know what this feels like and it is not always easy to control or understand. You have to work on developing some calming methods and go for walks if you can. I know that you can't always do that by yourself, but since the weather is still nice, try to see if you and your husband and go for long quiet walks, that will help you a lot.
