Overclocked is a diagnostic memoir for high-functioning professionals who've spent their lives translating exhaustion into performance, and performance into identity. Written from inside a psychological breakdown that never looked like one, this book reverse-engineers the quiet collapse of a system that was designed to survive.
Through personal logs, trauma-informed insights, and metaphor-rich language, Ian P. Gregoire maps the architecture of emotional suppression, burnout, and internal conflict. Drawing from decades of crisis management and service leadership, he offers readers not solutions, but recognition-a mirror for those who are too emotionally fluent to ignore the problem, but too embedded in systems to ask for help.
This is not a manual for recovery. It's a breach report.
One that might help you find your reboot point, without deleting who you had to become to survive.
