Seriously. If you're aware of a mental pattern that you have that is making you unhappy, therapy can very often help. The first two steps are awareness and a desire to change that mental pattern.

I've personally learned to embrace the interruptions and find much value in them. Usually interruptions caused by other engineers are often quite useful to the company and sometimes even life enriching. Kind and respectful interactions with others can make the lives of the people around you so much more bearable, and many people suffer alone in their own heads, especially now in such a dark time.
