Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Got something that's bugging you?

Want to vent, but don't want a response?

Sometimes our minds can get stuck in circles trying to sort out an issue. This can keep you up at night, or make it hard to focus on other things. I find that putting things away, and not thinking about it temporarily can be helpful.

This is the place to get it out, and then give yourself permission to let it go.

Maybe you will need to get back to it some other time, but this is space where you can put it in a place so that you can leave it for some time and (try) not to worry about it in the mean time.

It's a thread where people don't need to reply, it purely just to get it out your worry and concerns.

If you want to show your support for someone, hit the 'like' button. In this thread, 'like' doesn't mean that you 'like' someone's issue, but you support them in letting it out.

So write down your concerns, put it in a vault, shut the door, and allow yourself to walk away from it.

Pls note: If you are reading other people's posts, please respect that they don't want a response. Show your support by 'Liking' their post.

Hi everyone,

Yesterday (Thursday),I had already arrived 7.45am for the Traffic Prac Assessment - After a 45Km drive, in Peak Traffic (left Home at 7.00am).

Another shock.

The Traffic Control Prac Assessment (for yesterday) had been cancelled by the Training Co.

They did not inform me.

I am now supposedly Re- Booked Re Scheduled for next Wednesday 3rd November.

It took over 1 hour driving home from there - 90Km Round trip, 2 & 1/4 hours - In Peak Traffic.

Yes it's a further blow to my confidence.

As the further between Traffic Controller Theory Assessment & Prac Assessment (now 3 weeks) - The less confident & the less prepared I feel (to Pass).

Plus the DES Job Provider now said they may cancel the Job Process (& prospective Job), after weeks of sustained effort - & more than 45 hours of course time (in person + Online).

- Because the the Prac Assessment has been delayed too long.

- Also because they finally acknowledging the serious limitations of my Physical illnesses (& Surgeries).

- & the fact that I cannot work a 12 hour long Work Shift either at all, or without serious health consequences.

This Job requires 12 hour work shifts - That's the only Job (they said) they have on offer.

Just when I thought I had my emotions under control and was taking a positive approach to managing my mental health and participating in life, the sword has dropped and everything's changed again.

I don't feel that I can deal with it but I must...

Today is what would have been my 24th wedding anniversary, 7 months after my husband's untimely passing.

My wedding day was a happy occasion, although my marriage was 'difficult'. But I loved him nonetheless.

He used to tell me on a regular basis that "you were a nobody before you met me" or "you are nothing without me".

I fear that he was right ... I am a nobody, a nothing.

It's a New Employer - I've not done any Work Shifts yet.

The Shifts are supposed to be Optional (Accept or Decline) - Through a Mobile Phone App, that I've only just Downloaded & Don't know how to Use.

- I just received my 1st Work Shift Notification Now (4.30pm) - Starting at 6.00am Tomorrow (Wednesday) Morning.

I cannot Adapt or Prepare with such Short notice – Would be non-functional at 6.00am – Likely having to Leave home at 5.15am, to get to (Depot) by 6.00am.

I cannot Live & Fly by the Seat of my pants – Which is what this Late Work shift notification Promotes (or brings about).

I’ve been Repairing/ replacing the Retic Pipes (this afternoon) – That gardening guys Slashed off this morning.

Which I only discovered, after coming home from the Dentist (late this afternoon).

I have not yet had any discussion with this company (employer) over Shift Lengths, Limiting Weekly Hours to 15 per week (Disability Employment Service Benchmark), or Shifts with access to toilets (because of Bowel Dysfunction).

Total overwhelm
