Re: not coping

thank you @Eve7 @Appleblossom @Owlunar @Shaz51 @Snowie @Bunniekins @Jynx @tyme and all those quietly supporting

i have made the goal to pay off my debts, get through a wedding coming up and my next hospital week long infusion at the end of the year and then next year when my savings have been regrouped i can start looking for another place to live.
im hoping to also start creating some distance as well by trying to make some decent friends, and also hopefully find a new job. those job will entail me being able to work without taking pop. if i still stay where i am right now itll only be a shift a week but i would like to try another workplace. where i am right now it is to toxic and i hate being there. its affecting my mental health so time to move on.
im hoping to do some more studies as well, ive enrolled ina couple of free 2 day courses throughout net month and next month for something to do.

Re: not coping

Sounds like you have been thinking really hard about your future @outlander which is great.

Having a goal and something to work towards is wonderful hon.

I hope it all works out for you and you can get another job.

Re: not coping

id like to try and stay as a support worker but become more specalised in an area like more peer supporting (rather then providing personal and bowel care assitance) or further educate myself on an area like diabetes management, or diet and exercises or a combination. i want to get out of the personal care and focus more on other aspects of support working.

Re: not coping

my surgical sites have been really sore and dont seem right though. im wondering if ive maybe done abit much as the surgeon did clear me for work but ive been on all the heavy duty shifts compared to other shifts despite my reuests to work easy shifts for a couple of weeks.
im seeing if hopefully the gp clinic can fit me in tomorrow to just check them over. something doesnt seem right with them, couple of signs im worried about that have popped up over the last 2 days that are worsening or not improving which i wouldnt really be expecting at this stage

Re: not coping

That sounds like a great idea @outlander

You need to be able to enjoy your job and do something that you like.
