Night Shift

It is surprising and a relief when you connect to others stories on here. I hope you do find a sanctuary here to help work through things and find support. In the meantime I hope your work situation gets sorted out. I'm not one to really offer advice on work but there are threads on talking to employers on here if you want too. There is a thread devoted to careers and work on Fridays you could look up called career chat.

Finally, the day had come, the misery got all too much for me; I was sick of feeling empty and worthless, which brought enormous amounts of guilt and shame. I hated my life and rehab was my chance to get away.

@Blackclouds Bear in mind your partner doesn't have to understand any of it either to help. I didn't get that. My best friend can't even begin to relate to what I go through and for the longest time I thought she had to but in fact she offers so much support because she can't relate and therefore can switch off to my pain and anxiety easily and I no longer feel like I burden her as much. She is there to listen and I still wear a mask but I can tell her some of the dark stuff with my mask still on ( I can't let the emotion out with anyone still ) She supports by checking in with me every few days and being around when I need her. Sometimes she kicks my butt too when needed to get out of bed. So maybe you'll find someone to do this first step with too. Look after yourself😊💜

Hi @JM-Addiction, sounds like you've had a really rough patch too. Are you in rehab now?

Night @utopia sleep well💜😊😴

Hi there,

I was an inpatient earlier in life, However I still attend Day programs once a week.
