Something’s not right

Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Re: Not Coping

There are only a couple of other hospitals. I'm so sick of applying for jobs @ArraDreaming

It's been six months.

Re: Not Coping

Oh well, you help with the admin side of the hospital with diabetes patients, whether that is inpatient, outpatient, or telehealth. I'd do admissions and discharges. Talk to patients and gather their details and I'd update their blood glucose levels and help with the gestational diabetes sessions with the nurse. That was in Hobart and I really loved that job. @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

Would you be open to other work outside of the diabetes specialisation at least for the time being? Like general admin at a school or hospital and then move into that? Just so you have income for a bit @Birdofparadise8
