After a session with my therapist, who makes a great secure base, I felt better, even though I got almost no sleep last night trying to make the deadline. I also got even more bad news about it this morning. But I was calm enough to write a memo detailing a plan that, if my bosses can get together and agree on it, should solve the problem, which has to do with priority setting. I haven't got their feedback on it, but a coworker seemed to think it was a really good idea. And, as she said, if they don't agree, I can feel comfortable that they must not consider this deadline much of a priority.
So I feel good that at least I came up with what appears to be a sensible solution to an ongoing problem. It's at least worth a shot.
And since I worked through the night, I felt justified in spending some quality time with my son and husband (and dogs) when I finished mid afternoon.
And only one or two anxiety attacks today! No panic attacks! Hooray!!
(Or am I enjoying that lovely sleep deprivation happiness. No matter. I'll enjoy it.)
