She did forget about all the noise the workers were making. Worth noting; the work being done was on a separate building on the opposite side from her apartment. The were applying stucco. Apparently it's very noisy? My goal was to refocus her attention and then leave with the contractor. Then she'd have no one to scream at. It worked perfectly. She went back to her apartment screaming at no one in particular until around 11PM when her neighbor came over to cam her down. Next day the neighbor told me she found her covered in sweat an standing in a puddle of urine screaming gibberish.
This is why I can't be a mental health worker. I enjoy helping crazy over that ledge.
