This explains so much. "You should just rest." Or "Didn't you just take a rest day?" Um...I spent my day putting out other people's fires while trying to burrow into a cocoon and avoid people. Is that restful? No. I'm still exhausted and even one more thing, from the seatbelt dinging to a cat jumping on me will send me over the "too much sensory input" edge. I wish people understood that I need more than /one/ rest day. I need all of them. And now I am going to try to go rest again before the next emergency happens.
