For what it's worth, I had intrusive memories that were distracting me at work. So I taped a nickel to the inside of my elbow. Every time I bent my arm, it hurt. The pain pushed back the memories. After day 2 of this, I had to stop because arms were experiencing spasms, so all-day-long might be too long for this sort of thing.

I'm sorry your are experiencing such distress. It's a distressing situation. You are an amazingly strong person for showing up to work every day! You have my utmost admiration!
my parents wont get me a therapist and I cant afford one. the nickel thing is a good idea, I'll try that. thanks
