This morning I overslept right through my alarm, missed an appointment, and had to rush to work. Then, when counting up some cash for a deposit, I somehow completely failed to notice that I was $200 short, despite knowing that I would be. I am actually somewhat alarmed by this development. Overlooking things and forgetting things is part and parcel of my life; that is the nature of my disability. Usually, however, I'll remember what I forgot, or at least remember that I did forget something. The scary moments are when I miss something, and it's unmistakable that I did so, but as far as I can recall, I did everything right. But I obviously didn't. I think I'm more depressed than I realized.

I posted a couple of days ago on sitting with the silence. You might want to read that post and mine it for nuggets relevant to you.

If it helps, it seems emotional stress totally hits me in the ability to drive; I had a moment like that last night where I quietly sat through the green signal at the end of the sunderland bridge and rolled through half the intersection after it turned red before realizing what I'd done. Thank the gods the intersection was deserted so no one witnessed my goof and I didn't have to add embarrassment to my reasons to freak out. But still, at least your mental misfirings aren't dangerous, eh?

*hugs*
