I have experienced what you have also.

I went through several months were I just couldn't hardly be with my lovely grandchildren but that is much better now.....I found earplugs to be a tremendous help and I did take longer bathroom breaks during family activities at the house for some quiet.

I had a difficult time being around my family at times due to crazy anxiety and in ability to sit still but I figured out ways to let them know I was thinking of them.....a touch or a smile, lots of ways to communicate love and concern. You just need to be creative.

This is a very strange journey. It takes patience, perseverance and an approach out of the box for some things.

I can't be in church for the music yet due to to volume and it can really raise my anxiety. I go late now and I keep my head down and eyes closed a lot due to the fluorescent lights but it is working and God understands!

As Mark says...best wishes to you!
