Hi @BlueBay
I spent a large part of most of this week under the doona. I am good at dissappearing.
I get that you are underpaid and probably expected to carry too much responsibility while not adequately reimbursed. We used to have a GP in our neighbourhood also known as the Vet. He used to yell and humiliate his deske staff. I witnessed it a few times, and once I later went up and consoled the medical receptionist, as it was obviously out of order and just nasty.
@Faith-and-Hope Your posts about dealing with the rubbish lady struck a chord with me. Sometimes it takes a long time though, for things to get on an even enough keel, for people to witness when the cosmic wheel turns ...
@Former-Member Congrats about your son. I had several attacks of shivers down the spine ... in a good way ... feeling for you and your boy ... you deserve to make his graduation really special for you both.

Hey @eth and @Faith-and-Hope
I just saw my GP and told him to admit me to hospital - but he said he can't. It has to be my psychiatrist. What the hell I thought GP's can admit me as well. Why can't he just call my psych and put me in.
Anyway so now my gp is away for 4 weeks and has told me to see another doctor, who i have seen before. I am over it; over trying to get better. my work stress and expectations of me to perform even more than what i am already doing is crazy. my melt downs today have been so bad. my co-worker who is also a close friend was worried about me and said i could easily go on stress leave.
My gp has suggested i write an email to my supervisor (who doesn't work with us but comes in to the store once a momth) and tell him i am not coping and would like some responsibility taken off me. But i feel that if i do that it is failure - it is a reflection on my inability to cope.
He does know of my depression, anxiety and knows i was in hospital last year.
i just don't know anymore.
Thank you both for your caring thoughts to me and your hugs. much appreciated and love the hugs. xxxooo

@Former-Member Hi 🙂
That is so awesome about your son ❣
So nearly there ...
A makeover for his graduation is a wonderful way to celebrate, and it will mark the occasion with a special memory for him as well.
Together you are succeeding in charting a new course for your family. Congratulations !! That's huge ❣

I forgot to tell him. When i walked in there i was upset and we were talking about work. I will start taking them again tomorow.
I am such a failure, a hopeless person who can't cope with the slightest bit of extra pressure or stress. I think its because of my BPD and anxiety that I just can't handle any bit of stress. To me it's too overwhelming.
I just don't know what to do with our finances or lack of. I am so scared that we will have no house. i feel so trapped because i have to work and that i can't even take a day off if i don't feel well or mentally need a day off because i have to work and have no sick leave left.
i feel so stuck. my life seems stuck. maybe disappearing would solve my problems. i so hate my parents. but i miss my dad so much.
