@johnbishop, Have you ever heard of the term that refers to when an Autie is totally innervated, still, and cannot manage to do a thing? It's not catatonic or coma. The name escapes me. I saw it recently in one of my groups. Guess I will have to go back to those groups and pursue it further. Or, if anyone on here has a clue, please pass it on. I would like for us to address it for a bit. This is something that has to be dealt with on a fairly regular basis. I would appreciate any comments of a respectful nature. I will start by saying that for me, large blocks of unstructured time are ripe for emotional disaster. And guess what today is? Sunday! I have only two or three things at the most that HAVE to be done. So, this morning, I was the poster child for whatever the word is. I sat there on the sofa, waiting for the dark cloud to lift. It didn't. But my husband, God bless him, made a comment about my finishing a project I started. .....a while ago. Well, that made me mad. Doesn't he know how I feel? No, actually, he doesn't. And I'm not going to tell him, either. Not until I figure this out. I did get up off the sofa and worked a lot on several projects. I do feel better. The sun is shining again.
