Hi everyone! Angel here. Just wanted to post this to see if anyone has any suggestions for how to prevent chronic meltdowns. I've been having them ever since I was 17 (I'm almost 23 now for clarification purposes). And they're very intense. Dad now has cancer so I'm starting to really try and stop or at least drastically reduce them.

I found being permanently stoned a good prophylaxis.
I've been told that for a few decades after my late teens I was "the most laid back person they knew"

True! But I never really got high believe it or not. No matter how much or how little I smoked or ingested. Used to be on an mmj card but its too much money

You're a good candidate for this therapy then
If you can get the calming benefits without being completely wasted, you may be an express demethylator or an ultra-rapid metaboliser.
I find there are a variety of pharmaceuticals to which I react minimally, or even in reverse to most humans

I found my meltdowns often had an element of the unexpected. If something I did not anticipate went wrong, it could trigger an meltdown. However, they were generally brief and in five minutes or less it would be gone. Two strategies I found useful were to anticipate what could go wrong more and absent myself until I calmed down.
