I do this so much at work and have to constantly remind myself not to overdo it (otherwise people will think I’m crazy).

I've learned to back off and realize that commas, instead of parentheses, often work just fine.

But I've already used commas to add more information to the sentence, how can I fit in more information without parentheses?

Stand over the person reading it and interject.

Consider the humble “em dash” — some people use it to interject a completely different sentence in the middle of another — the next time you’re trying to avoid parentheses.
