Christina and Wild Coyote, I can definitely relate to having sound sensitivity. Also light sensitivity, to a degree. It actually used to be worse for me, but it's improved over the last few years.

Wild Coyote, I hope you have heard back from your psychiatrist, or will very soon.

I really need to do some self-care today. I've been OK about the very basics, mostly because of vacation and family gatherings, but some have been grossly neglected. When I went to my uncle's funeral service I was wearing a nice black dress. My sister told me that I had tons of dandruff showing. She was right. Umm, need to wash my hair already. The problem with my hair is that I am able to often make it look presentable even without proper care. But obviously, something gives. I don't usually wear black tops.
