Maybe finding more distraction, more stimulation, outside work. Anything. Go for a walk during your lunch break. Preferably where there are lots of people.
I like to travel by train to work (actually, I really need it). Lots of people. Stations: bee hives. No congestion. No friction. Just flow.
Routine blinds us, understimulating us, I strongly believe. It goes against our nature, we can't adapt like some others can.
Edit:
Especially the courtroom is quite exceptionally more stimulating (too much, for most of us, I'd say).

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
See Me, Feel Me, Touch Me, Heal Me.
