I know that legally, they should, but dare I ask? My therapist is suggesting it so that I can decrease my reaction to noise and stimulus. I nearly had a screaming fit because people were talking so loud and a coworker was banging away at a printer. When I get anxious, excess auditory input makes me freeze mentally.

I know how medical health worker are about co workers with mental illness. I would like to ask for help, but know that if I do, it will cause problems. Does anyone have any insight?
