I have not been myself lately and I apologize for that. I have something called Aspergers Syndrome. It is an Autistic Spectral Disorder (ASD). I hardly ever tell anyone about it. I am going through what I call my Annual Christmas Meltdown. It just happens when I have alot of stress (which, usually I can handle pretty well) And lets face it, the holidays themselves are pretty stressfull with everything that you have to do to prepare for them. But then you add in other factors such as work, daily life struggles, planning a show, your significant other already rehearsing for 2 shows every night so you never see them, family, and daily activities. It makes for a horribly debilitating mix of anxiety and deep depression which causes said meltdown. My meltdowns can last anywhere from a couple of hours to a couple of weeks off and on. I cannot control when they happen, but when something triggers it,(and it really can be anything) the best thing for me to do is ride it out. To people outside of my world, it may seem like I am being childish , but that is not the case. It is simply sometimes the only way to relieve my stress. So please dont tell me to buck up or deal with it. Im doing my best. And I apologize for upsetting anyone. Trust me, this is the worst meltdown that Ive ever had.
