I need some help - re job/depression things *updated*

[Stellata]

I've a meeting today with one of my managers[who's sort of my 'care coordinator' at work, really!] and the disabilities coordinator.

It's in preparation for my moving one of my workplaces temporarily. I've worked very briefly at the other place before, but I don't really know my manager there, and noone really knows the details of my situation much. I wasn't there long enough, really.

At the meeting today I've to ask any questions, and think about what to say to my 'new' colleagues and manager.

I prepared a bit with my therapist yesterday - along the lines of my need for reassurance due to my sense of lack of my worth/belonging, as well as how tiredness can effect me - and that it's an emotional tiredness. We also talked about my need to give myself space from time to time - but not to isolate myself completely.

I know there's more things I need to consider/ask. But my brain's frozen. Can you help with some suggestions and thoughts?

Thanks.

Anyone?

Ummm I'm not sure Katie, sorry :(
But I hope it goes well *hugs*

Do you have one of those reasonable adjustment plans? Can you ask the people at the library where you have been working if they have any suggestions? Good luck, i'm thinking about you.

Good luck with it Katie. Really what your new colleagues need to know is how thay are best able to support you. It would probablyy help you to feel more confident starting at the new library if you know who you should turn to if things get tough, also what concessions they will make to suit your needs.

Thanks.

I'll be meeting with them all next week to explain my illness and how it effects me and what I need.

I do have reasonable adjustments.

Even so the dc was a bit cagey about my taking mental health sick leave at short notice, as they're short staffed and need me - but she will explain to the manager there.

*hugs* all the best with it!!
