I made this when I was partially overloaded the other day... I was having some trouble with my mom. It is basically what constitutes a meltdown/overload for me (or right before one). Anyways, here it is with the description (I wrote it a little bit before this):

"When they attack, the fire comes and everything else in me flees. Emotion, logic, nature, and the thing that keeps me going disappear. For a time, I'm just broken. I can't function. It does NOT feel good. All I can do is sit there... I can't think at all. If I was pushed any further, I would probably have a meltdown. They usually don't though. The first thing to return is the mechanical side of me... maybe that happens so that I can't let them hurt me more. Still... They are turning me into a machine... more of a machine than I am already. Every time they attack, I am slightly more desensitized (only how I react to negative things). I'm stuck here."
There is a spike/pole thing going through its head. Then there is that fire thing that happens to me... it's going into its head while that is going on. Then, all of its personality (below) is leaving it, causing it to be completely empty inside for a while.
