Not Coping

Yeah. @Birdofparadise8 . That was just MY example.

So what is something you really don't want to do, but you know is right to do? e.g. stretch out the time between seeking support so you can sit with the unpleasantness?

Oh okay, right @tyme

Mmm well, I'm doing that tonight. I haven't called KHL yet.

I remember at the start of the year, I would call so much not only to them, but others as well.

Good on you @Birdofparadise8 . That's a start. I remember when my psych told me to 'sit with the unpleasantness', and this was such a foreign concept to me. But looking back, I get it now.

I guess so @tyme

I'll be fine.

I'm proud of you for even entertaining the idea of trying something new @Birdofparadise8 . Just keep going. I'm on for a little longer and can keep you company.

Do you finish at 9 or 10 @tyme?

I have work again tomorrow so fun. I think if I didn't I would have done something again.

I finish here just before 10pm @Birdofparadise8 . I'm glad you have work. How did the meeting go? Only if you feel like sharing.

I didn't have the meeting in the end @tyme

It might be next week. Who knows, really, I'm so scared.

Don't stress @Birdofparadise8 . They need you more than you need them! Do you know how hard it is to get workers now? It's so easy for you to get another job. It's not so easy they find a replacement.

I wonder if they are putting the meeting off because they can't find a replacement?

Self-soothe and challenge your fear with the above thoughts?

But honestly, I really reckon they can't find a replacement even if they wanted to.

It only hasn't happened because Monday I was in the hospital, and then today my shift got changed. I said I could do it on Monday, but they haven't said anything yet to me @tyme.

I don't really care, so I'll let them chase me about it, to be honest. I just want it over with and have a new job.
