I think it was Fri nite, and I was journaling some stuff from the past in order to prepare for my up coming meeting with a judge for disability. It sent me into a bad depression. I ended up taking a...
Hi Karen, Thank you for your response. I totally understand your rules about the subject matter and I agree she the rule totally. This is just a bad time of year for me. It's the 2nd holiday season...
I need some help here. I have a friend that has/is going to far and I can feel my anger rising and it's making me depressed. I have been friends with her since late 80's. I want to preface this by...
How do I change my email address so I can get replies in my updated email?...

I do not wish to go into any actual details right now, so I hope you will understand. I feel betrayed and very hurt emotionally since something was said recently. I will say it was not by anyone real...
Thank you all. I'm going to look up that website....

I feel as if I am in an awkward situation. As you may remember I am in a tough position in my job. Things have really headed south since the first of the year. I have a lot going on in my personal...
I am not sure what to think. How can you tell if a person does not have feelings? For example I will go back to Nov. after my accident. My bosses came across as if they were upset with me or that...
I'm doing my best to hold on. Today my friend and I stopped by my bosses house to pick up some things and to see gramma. She asked if I was staying out at the complex. I told her not yet as I am not...
I went thru 2 meltdowns this past week. Last week at our weekly meeting. I was informed that I am no longer allowed to come into the city on weekends to be with my dad. I am basically living with him...
I just feel more and more confused over my situation. First off I have been told by 2 different people that my bosses were looking into a property management co. When I asked about the property...
I am not sure if this is anxiety, depression or both. I have been thru a lot the past several years at my job. I have been at my job 6 yrs. the first several yrs. were great. It seemed I could do no...

It has been a while since last posted on here. For those who are new or don't know my situation, I will briefly fill you in. Since October 2010, when I have been in town, I have been staying at my...
Hi Karen, Thanks for putting a title on it. I totally forgot to. I do not feel obligated to stay at their house. It started out that I would come for an evening every now and then to sit with grandma...
I am sort of a position in which I do not want to be in. I am afraid it will come down to making a very tough decision that I cannot make. Since the first of September, when I go into town, I stay at...
Sometimes I get this awful feeling that I can't shake. While at work yesterday I found a couple of errors I made. Neither one means the end of the world but to my boss you would think so. I noticed...
I want to know why I am so stupid and believe in things and then endjup getting hurt. Long story short. I started my job 3 1/2 years ago. Things went well for the firs year and a half. I was somewhat...

Mine can be a long story so will shorten it the best I can, or give the RDV (Readers Digest Version). Last May I was carrying the ironing board out to my dads garage. I have gone up and down those 2...

I have, and I may have to. I may not have a job much longer. Right now I am hurting so much. When I signed on the computer tonite, I had a faint hope that I would have an e-mail message but there was...
A brief update. Unfortunatly it has gotten worse. After posting and about the time for me to leave my boss called me. She was really all over me. I am the first one to admit that I did make a mistake...

I do not know if I have ever posted on this subject or not. I have a friend who is in real trouble and in denial. She lost her job in 2005. She has never looked for another one. She opted to stay...
Hi Karen, Thank you for the kind words. I can only hope it was a bump in the road. Long story short. They are taking some former tenants to court. She had asked me to get all the evidence that I...
First off I would like to ask a stupid question. I got upset as I was leaving work today. I could not find my car keys. My boss came back from running an errand and I was really upset with myself and...

Haven't posted in a while, not like life has been perfect, but lately it feels like hell. I love my job and it is secure. Since summer my dad has had 4 heart attacks (no heart problems in the family...
I don't really know where to start. I feel stuck in the middle of a vicious cycle. I don't feel that I have anyone to talk to. Here is my situation. My dad is 81. He is most likely in the early...
Thank you for your responses. To answer Kitt's questions. The maintenance guy is a contract employee. He owns his own business and the owners have contracted him to work for them. There really is not...
I usually post on the depression boards but someone suggested maybe the anxiety boards would be better so I decided to give it a try. I currently work as a manager at an apt. complex. It is owned by...

Hi Bella, I was just reading your posts for the first time. Although I do not know the situation regarding your parents death, I am very sorry to hear that. In one of your posts you made a comment...
I feel trapped in a "darned if you do, darned if you don't" cycle. It is a vicious cycle. I am not really sure where to start. I am dealing with my dad and his health issues. He will be 81 this year....
Thanks guys! I see both a therapist and a pdoc. The pdoc is mainly for meds. The maintenance guy and I are getting along pretty good right now. I realize my boss means well and I do appreciate her...

I am at my wits end. I do not know what to do anymore. My bosses want things done one way and the maintenance guy wants things done a different way. He gets very adament about certain things. I am...
2 1/2 years. I have never done this type of work before. I started there just to help my friend and her husband who own the complex while looking for a full time job. The manager was ill and going...
