This and also you could try going back to your doctor or a new doctor. And appeal to them for help, explain how your feeling and see if you can get some referrals in place. Although they may take time to come through in my experience it can be slightly better knowing something is happening. Try and be careful at work and if the people who set up the placement won't listen - try talking to the manager of the shop. Some people have a greater understanding of these things than you'd expect. Take care.
