Yeah. I have anxiety sometimes. And I've lost about three jobs within the past year.
0id
You've lost three jobs in the past year. Is it because of things?
1irq
Yeah, well, I'm scared that something's going to happen and my apartment.
0id
So I need to unplug things.
0id
But I it has to be in order. So when I unplug things, it has to start with the TV and then my computer And then my phone and then the lamps. And then I've been late to work.
0id
Alright, so you have a system you go through of unplugging. Yeah, different objects in your apartment. And you're worried that they're going to cause a problem if they're left plugged in.
4crq
Yeah. Like if they overheat it because they burned it down.
6cd
and your apartment will catch on fire.
5yq
And you have a particular order, you go in as you unplug,
5yq
yeah.
7ack
What happens if you're unplugging the items and you get distracted or something interrupts that
1irq
mean sometimes I'll get like a text message and I'll hear my phone call. Have to just start all over again.
0id
Will you plug the objects back in? Are we how we do it for the items are already unplugged?
1irq
I would just have to unplug them, and then I would have to plug them back in or vice versa.
0id
I should go back and plug them in?
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
What's your anxiety level? Like as you start that process?
1irq
It's it's really bad.
0id
Is it?
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
How about towards the end of the process?
1irq
It goes away. But it it's just kind of temporary for a little bit of time, and then it comes back and I have to go check it again.
0id
And go through the whole process again. It's just pretty distressing.
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
Yeah. And you think that This is what led to the problems of deployment.
11orq
Yeah, because I also, I have to lock my door, but I like to lock it 12 times. So I'll put the key in, and I'll hear it click, but then I just like doing it 12 times just to make sure it's locked. And that made me late for work. And then when I was at work, I have a drawer on the cashier. Um, so I would just make sure it was locked, but I would have to do it, you know, 12 times just make sure was locked. And I didn't get back in time to like, half the customers.
10od
Sure your employer wasn't wasn't happy with that.
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
And that led to those new job.
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
you're working now?
1irq
No, um, I had a job for a little bit of time. It was again a cashier position. But I was on break. And, you know, I was like in the room and I have the fights and I Just Just want to be sure like they would go off all the way because they don't want me to light on.
0id
And by the time I got done turning them on, and just make sure they were off
0id
and get back in time on the floor.
0id
My employer just said I wasn't a good fit
0id
wasn't a good fit. So this so these symptoms have caused you some real problems.
5yq
With employment and how about with your anxiety level?
1irq
My anxiety is really bad.
0id
If we were to put on a scale like one was very little exciting. A 10 was the worst anxiety you've ever experienced. What kind of anxiety having a daily basis now?
11orq
Probably, like a 10
10od
by 10. So the worst ever
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
and checking the door was checking light switches, unplugging everything. This reduces your anxiety for a while just for
1irq
a little bit.
0id
But then it comes back?
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
Is there anything else that you do that helps to reduce the anxiety?
1irq
It's just, I guess when I'm in the act of doing it, it will relieve it. And that'll be okay for a little bit of time. But even coming in, you know, like I said, when you have chairs and some pictures, and I just like I had to touch them, like, had to touch the chairs. But I wanted to touch the chairs first, and then the pitchers. And that's normally what I do. I'm in a room like I have to touch the chairs first. And I feel okay when I'm doing it. And then when I'm finished, I feel a little better. But then it comes back things.
0id
Do you know how long you've had these symptoms?
1irq
Probably since, I guess like third grade.
0id
So So sometime Yeah. Did they start off? Like they are now? Or are they different?
1irq
And started off with a little bit of things like I would just get a little bit of anxiety. I just went on to play with the doorknob. And then as I got it went away for like a year. Maybe and then I would start to play with the lights and just make sure that they were off.
0id
It was the same thing that help reduce anxiety.
5yq
Yeah.
7ack
didn't cause any trouble?
1irq
My parents didn't really like it. They kind of were like, you know, something's wrong with you. Yeah. Stop playing with that.
0id
Will you ever taken somewhere and diagnosed or treated?
1irq
No, no. My parents just thought it was like nerves.
0id
And now it's now it's the worst it's ever been.
5yq
Yeah. Yeah.
7ack
Do you feel like you're able to go back to work with the symptoms? Boy they are now?
1irq
Probably not.
0id
Because they're so disruptive.
5yq
Yeah.

I just feel like even when I'm in a room with 100 people that I'm still by myself and I want to have friends and I want to go out but I, I just feel alone No matter what I do, and when I'm at home I'm really unhappy and, and, and really lonely but I just can't be around anybody.
0id
Can I have you go back to this statement that you made? I just really feel alone No matter what I do Could You say that again for me a little slower.
1irq
I just because I used to have people calling me and
0id
I'm going to ask I'm just going to interrupt you gently again. Okay, and see if we can get you back to this moment. Where this loneliness is showing up. Could you just for me one time say I'm really feeling this loneliness.
5yq
I'm really feeling this loneliness
0id
Okay and just stay there. Just be aware of what your body's doing. Notice your hands. Notice the little shimmer as you breathe in. Notice the feel of the tears in your eyes and rolling down your cheeks. And let's just stay in this moment with this experience.
0id
It's hard.
0id
Yeah, now notice Got your mind said that in this moment and you just took a deep breath. Stay with it for just another few moments.
0id
Well, I really feel that
0id
I'm going to slow you down again. And just with the jet from a very gentle place, very gentle place ask you to stay and Notice that's all. Your breath As you observe yourself, can you feel it changing? You feel it move in and out.
5yq
Yeah.
8op
So what you notice here is that as a process, like you're experiencing an ongoing sense in each moment of sadness, your hands moving, tears rolling down your cheek. So one thing that your experience tells you is that you can stand it and it keeps changing.
0id
Yeah. Well, I just feel really alone most of the time, and even when I'm with people, I'm still just so by myself and I feel like no one cares or even notices when I walk into a room.
0id
Well, so let's start there with no one noticing that you've walked into a room?
0id
Yeah
7ack
what emotion comes up with?
1irq
I don't know, sadness.
0id
Are you feeling it now?
5yq
A little bit.
8op
So just stay with what you're feeling right now, even the little bit be present to that.
0id
Well, it's like, I feel like I try a lot of the time really hard to, to make efforts bring people together. And even when I'm in a group and I'm formulating something that it's like the whole group ends up clicking except me, and I'm always on the outside of it.
0id
What other areas are you on the outside?
1irq
At work, I feel like we'll be having a meeting or something and I end up going into my head about something and then I'll miss the conversation and then everyone will start laughing and then you know, I will not have any idea what just took place
0id
For how long this has been a problem for you?
1irq
I don't know, it happens, it would happen in grade school playground stuff.
0id
So you could probably describe this all kinds of things about how this happens.
4crq
Oh, one the third grade, I tried to formulate this cheerleading group for this flag football that the boys did and I put the whole thing together and we went down to the field to present our new chairs and then the flag football guys, they really liked it but they said okay, we want to take everyone except you. And it was my idea.
6cd
Right Right.
7ack
And I was bet one who ended up being on the outskirts again. And I really tried that time to
0id
so outskirts is really part of the problem being on the outskirts?
