job has been overloading me and stressing me out to the point where i started having panic attacks. now taking a huge dose of benzos to prevent the panic attacks and reduce the anxiety.

here’s what i have planned so far:

today and tomorrow: do basically nothing other than exercise. recovery from work.

one week from now: a friend will be in town and we plan on going hiking.

toward the end of PTO: spam my resume everywhere to find a less stressful job.

i have lots of free time. i don’t what to do with it. i just want to do nothing.

aren’t you the guy taking an enormous dose of clonazepam? start a very slow, comfortable taper now and maybe speed it up once you’re back at work.

4 mg clonazepam per day. i want to reduce it, but my doctor said it’s too soon to try given how anxious i am even at this dose.

Rub and tug. Whole hour. Place that actually gives a decent massage in addition to playing with your carrot for a few mins. Not flame.

Cook something interesting. You have time. Open a bottle of wine, put on some tunes, and spend a few hours making something great.

Start a fermentation project. You have time. Simple mason jar fermentations. Try a variety. Doesn’t have to be complicated. Just some carrots and salt in a jar with peppercorns.

I think/hope it’s just mamasan but that’s probably naive given that these are all-cash businesses with low expenses.

Pre-family I didn’t even really take a vacation.

With kids I just take off and cross my fingers and work 12-35 hours that week at night or early mornings. There’s just no way to get away without other firms or your “partners” trying to fuck you.

sounds to me like you've already got a great plan, brother. with that high a dose of benzos, i would try to stay away from alcohol. hopefully you are not drinking any caffeine or taking any other stimulants. try to get into a good routine on sleeping (pitch black, cold, going to bed at the same time each day)

update nearly a week in:

end up doing absolutely nothing other than exercise for the first four days. just laid around and watched TV or read a book.

i’ve been getting direct work emails and messages every fucking day even though i’m on vacation. yesterday i logged out of all work systems and won’t check a fucking thing unless someone calls me.

haven’t shaved or showered since PTO started, starting to get smelly

weather has been good

might fly out to Los Angeles or San Diego in a few days
