She acted surprised to hear I was having a meltdown and wanted to know where I had told her that. So, no, I don't think she recognized that fact.

She first suggested this plan as a way to tell her that I was having a meltdown, so she could respond to that. I modified the words a little bit, so it's more saying, I have this need, that hopefully she'll be able to hear and respond to before I get to the meltdown stage. So far it's going well, but we'll see...
