Triggering (Suicide) - work and insecurity

[Stellata]

There's a department wide restructuring coming up at work.

If I lose my job, I'll lose everything. My support. My home. Friendship.

So what's the point in living? I might as well die now.

They may not be able to use my mental illness as a reason to make me redundant. But they could always find another reason.

And what evidence do I need to know that I'm not needed, when all the work they could find for me the past 2 days is tearing up paper? The shredder is apparantly not up for the task. So my hands are?
I feel so useless.

Soon I could be money-less, which would mean homeless and support-less.

I feel like I've survived this far, come this far in my recovery, for nothing.

I know it's not a given that I will lose my job.
But it's a possibility.

The world doesn't need me anymore.

I wouldn't be able to get another job because who'd employ me as I am? And who else would allow me to fit my hours around therapy and GP appointments?
I'm done for, aren't I?

The world does need you.

You don't know for definite that you will lose your job but IF you do, you will find another one. If you have appointments that you need to fit work around would it be an option to look for a part time job that might be more flexible with hours?

You can get through this. If you are unsure of how, maybe your therapist could point you in the right direction of organisations that could help?

Please don't give up hun. Look after yourself x

Thank you... I'll keep a hold of your replies to read when I .. fall over the edge about it again...

Thankfully my therapist brought me back to a stabler place in this morning's session.

It's hard.
