It started Thursday with just one patient. The tall male patient who is heavy set. I just didn't want him around me. He came too close. He violated my space. Then the thoughts and feelings grew.
Yesterday, everyone was closing in on me. They weren't respecting me. They were in their little bubbles, and their little bubbles were colliding with mine.
Today, I was finally able to put thoughts to the feelings and anxieties: I was afraid of the patients hurting me. I realize these thoughts are not grounded in reality, but I keep having them.
