I’ll try to keep more quiet, gray rock, don’t trip into it. I couldn’t be any more boring!

I'm sorry you're going through this. I could have written this myself. Grey rock grey rock grey rock.. yep!
We can try all we can but it's not sustainable.. and they do catch us off guard because we're HUMAN and not designed to be a grey rock.
Stay strong! Continue teaching yourself about how to prevent yourself from the circulation.. it's exhausting!
A strategy that helps is to repeat yourself again and again. For example, he questioned you about the medication. Just say, "My medication is ready and I'm going to pick it up." Doesn't matter what he says.. again, "My medication is ready and I'm going to pick it up.".. and say so as you're putting your shoes on. Invite your son to go with you. Easier said than done. I've started doing this via text.. literally, copy and paste.
