This Just In --
Never attempt home repairs from under the protection of a heavy dissociative blanket. Just don't do it. I was not cut or electrocuted and the hub is cleaning up my mess, but... damn. And still... the fog persists. You'd think that little incident would have caused enough anxiety to bust through it. Guess not.

I do know what you mean. I have been lectured to by my therapist about driving in such a state. Also yard work, heavy machinery... not good.
ReplyDeleteIt's weird, isn't it? It's like the warnings on pills or something, but while totally straight and sober. I am usually very aware of limits at those times, but the task in question fooled me with its simplicity. I guess if a person is disconnected enough, even something like a light bulb stuck in a socket can be dangerous. Though I knew light bulbs are fragile, I didn't know a person could hold a light bulb too hard. Maybe I would have known if I could have felt that I was doing that. See, that's just it. When I'm really disconnected - I don't feel. I guess that's the point.
ReplyDeleteheh. i did the exact same thing last year. dissasociating makes for an interesting day though....
ReplyDeleteUh oh - hope you are okay.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're ok.
ReplyDeleteI almost said "dissociation sucks"... but then, well... it doesn't always suck. Sometimes I like it.
Anyway, glad you're ok.
