This was complicated to express, I described a bad day for my "contact person", I said that I don’t want to put my head in the sand and pretend the world is fine, then it’s not. She said that’s common for people with asperger to ruminate over bad thinks and not, like the rest of the world, distract their thoughts to other things. It's definitive like that for me, then bad things happen in the world, in my country, or in my family, it seems to leave me more devastated than other people.
Today I have taken Xanor, a pill in America known as Xanax, because of anxiety triggered by some bad things happening here in Sweden. It’s not important what, the point is that many should see it as overreacting to take tranquillisers for that (actually Xanor felt kind of too strong). Let me also write that while I’m not looking for a debate about Benzos, lets just point out the irony that I my whole life have been warned of drugs, and now doctors - despite being a little ambivalent - tells me I can take a drug.
I don't know what the point with this entry is, maybe it’s one of those “does anyone else” post. One thing is that - as I wrote - I don’t want to put my head in the sand, it feels more honest to get anxiety over bad things in the world, then to pretend everything is fine.
