I work but had to cut my hrs down it was getting to me and my cleaning company doesnt help either cant have a stress day off work or if I am ill as the contract is a prestige one and would be sacked But the clients are nice and treat me with respect Cheers
I'm having a really crappy day today and it's days like these I wish I was able to work. Stuck in the house all day for the 4th day running feel like screaming!
I know! People send me emails all the time without attachments - no big deal. My supervisor told me that she reads emails over like five times before sending them; I proofread but hey, mistakes happen. I'm basically a glorified secretary at this position anyway so I'm not going to sweat it.
KeeKee, that sounds awful. Is it possible for you to volunteer anywhere just to get out of the house? I know you've said that it is difficult for you but maybe there's some compromise?
On the road of experience, join in the living day. If there's an answer it's just that it's just that way.

It's a sweet, sweet, sweet dream; sometimes I'm almost there
Sometimes I fly like an eagle, sometimes I'm deep in despair.
I work and have worked throughout my anxiety and depression. I think there are times I wish I didn't, but it is probably for the best that I have. Now I am feeling good about it but it does get very draining. I do feel accomplished though and good about myself when I finish a tough week.
Volunteering is a great way to get your feet wet and feel good without the pressures of work.
Hi Poppy. I'm not sure in regards to volunteering. It's getting the guts to leave the house that's the problem. If I make a commitment and can't attend I'd also feel too nervous to ring them and let them know so I'd probably not notify them and look like a horrible person. I can't deal with people face to face or over the phone and I can't tie my hair back in front of anybody due to my BDD so I'm lost for what I could actually do. I do like animals, but I find it quite demanding looking after my 3 cats never mind other animals too, plus I'm scared of dogs ha. I don't know, I'll find a way to get out this rut somehow.
