Including this post I am 43 posts behind the top poster. Other annoying threads however...

In terms of self help, it would be worth looking at some adaptive strategies. There's lots of stuff out there on sensory processing, so even if it's something you worked on at school, it's well worth re-visiting for yourself.
A lot of people with neurological challenges get a lot of mileage out of mindfulness techniques. T'Internet is over-run with that stuff!
And it goes without saying that if you don't get pip, it's worth a bash, if only to cover the cost of some private CBT or similar. Worth talking to your gp about what's available, anyhow, i you're finding yourself falling apart so often.
I was actually getting some help, mainly to try and sort out my anger problems however they seemingly forgot about me for several months, now I just feel like a name and address they can send their newsletters and such to. Honestly don't know what is going on in my head that causes me to react in this way.
