They're restructuring at work, and we have our initial briefing today. Citalopram is a wonderful thing; I found out about the meeting on Friday and on past occasions, I've spent the entire weekend in bed sobbing my heart out. As it is, it really doesn't feel good. I'm the sole earner in my household and even though I know I won't find anything out today, chances are it marks the start of a worrying few months. Going to have to get my head around the idea of nasty surprises when I'm least expecting them.

In a sane, sensible world, my job won't be at risk. Management logic isn't always the same as real world logic, though, and the thought of redundancy scares me into near-insensibility.

​Thanks, Joe, I'm really proud of myself for holding it together over the weekend.

Thanks, Carnation. I doubt we'll find out much today, anyway.

Thank you, Mouse! Got a banging relief headache now, but it feels mostly worth it :)

I bet! After all that there’s no doubt that I would have a headache too!

Be kind to yourself and relax when you get out of work, feet up and something yummy for tea? Or maybe some new pretty beads as a reward. You definitely deserve it!

I should have some fun beading supplies arriving in the post today :) If Mr Iris goes shopping today I'll ask him to bring home treats, though - maybe a steak or something.

That all sounds brilliant! Let’s hope Mr Iris is up for shopping, I think steak sounds perfect.

Glad to hear it all worked out for you, Blue. Another win for Blue over anxiety and another lesson learned about how the traps of negative thinking could have caused you a spiral.

I suspect it's a victory for SSRIs over anxiety, Terry, but hey, I'll take it :winks:

I doubt whether your meds did anything..You are responsible for getting through this so positively. I'm very pleased you had reassuring news.
