That sounds terrible! I'm so sorry you're in an environment that's making you so uncomfortable. When you feel yourself starting to get agitated or when you feel over stimulated by your environment is there a quiet room in your home you ca retreat too? Maybe put some headphones on, shut the lights off and close the door. I would even hide under the covers until I felt comfortable again. You have a lot to deal with, but you can manage these meltdowns by planning for them. I also tend to feel stress and anxiety for no reason sometimes. I've been dealing with it by exercising and listening to music. That works for me, maybe something similar can work for you. Find things you are interested in and things that calm you and have those ready for when you start to build up. Best of luck to you.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
