I described in my last post how I dealt with this upcoming house inspection. Its Tuesday now, and the inspection is on Friday. I have done a lot of cleaning, the house looks WAY better, but lots more needs to be done.
I described how I turned off the freaking out, put it out of view and go forward in a goal oriented way. It was working fine until yesterday but now.. its not working so good!
The panic is starting to bubble through! Argh!! I have found that playing music loudly is good for drowning it out but I cant do that 24 hours a day. All my methods of getting away from panic are not really working. I think the closer it comes to the day, the more pressure there is and thus my defenses are not sufficient. They are good for chronic things but not good for "the moment of truth" type situations.
What is the proper thing to do in this situation? (I cant ask T because i dont see her until Friday).
