I'm alright thanks. So tired. Got to be up early tomorrow for a GP appointment before work.

Are you feeling any better lovely?

Referral to a dietician sounds like a positive step, Cam.

Hope your GP appointment goes well lovely. Can you get off to bed quite soon?

Not really feeling any better but it's okay, I'm okay. Hoping I'll be able to sleep soon.

I did not sleep well :( I was worrying. GP was okay but she said as I'm still low we maybe need to think about changing my medication which I'm not sure about.

How are you all?

*squish* I'm sorry you didn't sleep well. I can understand being unsure about changing medication, but if it could help maybe it would be worth a go? Hope your day goes okay!

Thanks Hannah. I'll see how I go, I've been fairly stable on mirtazapine so I'm a bit loathe to change it and potentially feel a lot worse.

My day is stressful, work is so chaotic at the moment!

How are you?

Yeah, I can understand that. Sorry work is stressful! Hope it settles down a bit soon! Do you have anything on this evening?

I feel pretty awful tbh. I have this interview soon and I really, really don't want to go now and I think it's fairly obvious I've been crying and ugh. Bad day!

I hope today goes well regardless of what happens lovely. You don't deserve to feel bad.

I'm seeing a friend for dinner tonight so it's a nice kind of busy :)

That sounds good :) I hope you have a lovely time!

Blah. I was offered the job, but although they advertised for bank staff they were actually looking for full time, which is a bit ridiculous. I don't know what to do. I feel like I should take it because I do want to work more, but maybe it wouldn't be sensible to leave a job that's secure and fairly easy for one I might not cope with.

They shouldn't have advertised for bank if they actually wanted full time. My advice would be to accept it for bank work only, because full time in care is tough and you struggled with it before. Ultimately you know yourself best but that would be what I would do :)

I think, at least for the meantime, a job that allows flexibility with hours would be preferable. On good weeks I do think you are more than capable of full time but you are still fairly early in your recovery and in those time you need to think about what you can manage on a bad week otherwise you risk going backwards.

Would it help to think about how you have to spend your days off to remain sane? On those days do you think you would be able to a full shift?

Thanks, you're both right. I just hate that I even have to think about what I can cope with, it shouldn't be an issue. I hate this. I'm at work and I can't stop crying. This is ridiculous.

How are you both?

If it is any consolation I hate too, it ****ing sucks ass. I really does. In every other aspect of my life it feels like I am judge based on who I am and what I can do and it feels like this one big fundamental part of me is judge by what I can't do and that is ****. Having to plan or anticipate being ill just seems so backwards and wrong.

I'm alright.... sorry for the rant.

I also agree with the others. One thing I would say though is when i started working I did a few hours and gradually built up and I now work full time. I don't think I would have coped without building my hours up slowly so it may be worth seeing it as a way of taking care of yourself and allowing yourself to attend appointments etc whilst gradually building your hours up xox

Thanks guys <3

It is really crap, Sarah. I am glad you can relate though obviously not glad that you have to deal with it!

I am definitely turning it down.

How are you Cam?

Hannah, I think turning it down is probably a good thing. At least it proves you can get a job in care when you want it.

Sorry ppl are struggling at the moment.

I finally went to slimming world tonight which was positive but my. Head is a massive mess ATM (not because of the slimming world) I feel like I am in a whirlwind and it just want it to stop so I can breath.

Well done for going to SW Leigh! I'm sorry things are difficult though. *squish* Would it help to talk about anything?

I got offered a full time job in a restaurant while I went to sign on the other day and it was just mental, how it happened. I saw someone I knew who were at the job centre interviewing and yeah. It was so random.

Then devere have asked me to commit to hrs with them, which I would like to do but only msged me about this today.

It also means all my vol work needs to go on hold(again) and the plans I have had in Feb have now needed to be cancelled. Apart from my friends wedding day but am now working either side of it. She wanted me to be free on the 12th and 14th aswell, so she isn't overly happy and yeah. I know it is all stupid stuff but I just feel..lost? About it all and trapped at. The same time.
