I hold it together at work and then crash the moment I get home
Stress-clearance genes set your baseline, but context decides when you feel it, many slow-clearing people hold together under structure and crash once it drops.

Why it happens
If your wiring clears stress slowly, the load does not vanish when the workday ends, it surfaces. The collapse at home is often the delayed cost of a held-together day, not a separate problem, and it is worth naming with the people you live with.
One thing to try
Build a ten-minute buffer between work and home, a walk, a shower, silence in the car. Give the crash somewhere to land before you walk in.
Each decode is a research-backed tendency, not a diagnosis. A tap tells you how your body is likely wired and what to try, it does not label you, and nothing here is a substitute for a doctor where a medical question is involved.
