Not Coping

Yes I read about you losing your job @Birdofparadise8 . Sorry but not sorry to hear. I sort of wanted to get out anyway. Have you got another job lined up?

I think the tension from hanging on to a job you didn't enjoy was more damaging to your mental health. You deserve to feel comfortable in your job.

Oh yes, definitely @outlander I feel the same, like I've been going around in circles with my old psych. We just went over the same thing. Maybe it's because she has only just started as well. This guy has been doing it for a while.

Yeah okay thanks @tyme

I'm kind of happy to leave now. My boss came up with a lot of BS to get me out. I didn't cry in the meeting in the end, but once they said I was fired and whatever else, I just left, lol.

No, I had three interviews, and two of them said I didn't get the job. I'm still waiting to hear back from one more about the interview. I also applied the other day for another job. It's funny I asked for feedback for my interview, and they both said I did really well and my CV and cover letter were great. I bet people had medical records training where I haven't. I applied for one in outpatient, so that will be more like me. I like patient contact. It's okay if I don't have a job for a couple of months. I have some savings, and I hope my Centrelink will increase soon, too if I go into the hospital, I won't have to buy food, so that's a plus.

Maybe he might @outlander

He said I didn't need to feel uncomfortable, but why wouldn't I? I had never met him before and told him everything about me while I knew nothing about him. Other than he is married and has three kids with a photo and a ring.

He kept asking me where I felt my emotions in my body. Do people ask you that?

I don't really understand it. Like I know when I feel anxious, I get nauseous or have a dry mouth, but with like sadness, it's harder to explain. It's like it's in my face or head.

I think he asked me at least five, if not more times @outlander

I just feel bad I didn't know how to answer. How can I explain something? I don't know how I feel it in my body.

Remember I asked you that many times too! It's actually a defusion technique. It's annoying, but it works. Just keep practicing it even if you don't get it. The more you practice, the better you get at it. Then when you need it, it actually works.

I feel like you are seeing my psych lol. He did all that work with me too.

I know you have @tyme

I don't get how telling someone where I feel it will help. I don't know where I feel sad. I am just sad.

lol, wouldn't that be funny haha? I go to one in Richmond.
