Lost. Exhausted.

Hello @Neuro_Spicy Love that name. Only like a little food spice, but like a lot of thought spice! lol

I am pretty tired of life too atm, but wanted to say hello and welcome you to the forum.

Apple

Many of us have been there and done that, @Neuro_Spicy, so we know how you're feeling. I hope today brings a little lighter mood. Sending best wishes is all I can do.

I don’t think I can do today.

I haven’t showered in a week.

It’s day 3 of these clothes.

I can’t eat.

I feel sick.

I need to work, my job is highly demanding. I’ve asked for help and not gotten it.

I’ve let my job break me.

I can’t do this.

@Neuro_Spicy - Have you got a good gp you can talk to? Can you elaborate more on what your thoughts are regarding these feelings?

Sounds like you are living to work, and need some help to change that around so you can work to live?

I haven’t seen my GP in a long time and no idea if I can even get an appointment 💀

I’ve managed to secure an earlier appointment with my psychologist than I had originally 👏🏻 (wasn’t due for another 2 weeks)

Today has been another massive day.

Suspected elder abuse for 2 clients and no help from senior management🙃 So I was tackling that today… Which I’ve never had to investigate before. Thankfully had an amazing nurse helping me but my lord.

I’m exhausted.
I’ve done lots of crying today.

I haven’t been able to eat.

I think I feel sick from not eating? But I can’t eat because I feel sick?

I have plenty of options here but nothing caught my attention?
Rationally I know I need to eat but it feels impossible.

I really should shower and change my clothes.

But I’ve started [removed by moderator] instead 💀

Thanks for the comments & supports peeps.

@Hanginthere @AussieRecharger @Historylover

I hate making phone calls.

I tried the suicide call back online chat

they finish the chat before you hit 30 minutes 💀

I need to shower I just can’t get there

please I hope I sleep tonight

I think it is an understatement to say that you need a break, @Neuro_Spicy. It sounds like there should be folks looking after their staff much better. I hope things get better soon.

It sounds like you need a hug and somebody beside you who makes you feel okay.

You definitely have a job that sounds like you experience vicarious trauma.. but i just want to let you know how much I appreciate that you work in that industry and the hard work you do to help vulnerable people.

I hope to hear that you feel better and are able to eat something soon...you sound amazing, its just too bad you are not feeling what i am reading about you.
