Something’s not right

Need to vent

Need to vent

Hi everyone

I need to vent!!

I'm not coping

I'm not enjoying my new job. It's mundane, boring and triggering. For those who don't know, I was made redundant in my pharmacy job 4 days before Christmas. I then found a casual job at a supermarket. The job I do is very boring. I have far too much 'alone' time at work so my mind wanders to a lot of stuff. I asked my supervisor if i could learn the registers as thats what i would love to do. she replied that she couldn't until next year, don't know why as we are so short staffed and they need extras.

They advertise extra shifts or replacing a shift on facebook, which i really hate. but that's how they do it. i asked my supervisor if i could pick up extra shifts even though i don't know the registers. she replied yes thats fine that i would still do cleaning.

The other day a staff member posted she needed someone to do a shift. i was the first one tyo reply and accept the shift. another girl replied after me. the staff member replied back to me saying she would give that shift to the second girl as i don't know tyhe registers. I was so annoyed, angry and then upset. I feel used, and discriminated.

The problem is I am 'too scared' to confront my supervisor and ask again as i don't want the other member to get into gtrouble. so this means that i can't get any extra shifts until i learn the registers.

it is so wrong

the other issue i am having is seeing the old pharmacy customers. it's not an issue in that i see them, they love to talk. some still didn't know i had gone!!! but each time i see them and they say 'oh i am sorry to what happened to you' i get upset, hurt angry at the new owners. i miss the girls i used to work with and the job.

working for a much much bigger organisation is hard. there is so much clicks, so much politics and crap. i try to go in and do my job and go home.

but with so much time on my hands at work i start to think negatively.

i have recentyly had terrible vertigo, a 5 day migraine and today again another headache. i decided to call in sick and was spoken to so rude and short by the supervisor. it's like she doesn't believe me when i call in sick. and my anxiety is extremely high in having to ring her.

i don't have the confidence to leave and get another job. i feel i am not good enough

i am sorry to vent, i know a lot of you are struggling with your own issues. and that i should be thankful that i do have a job, as a lot of people have lost theirs.

Hi @Former-Member @Snowie @oceangirl @Jynx @Emelia8 @Shaz51 @MDT @BPDSurvivor

do I deserve love support care etc ???

I feel I don't deserve all of this

I sometimes feel I'm a burden to the family

I feel my life right now is in a washing machine being tumbled over and over

thsnks to all for last night

I'm still struggling with all these thoughts in my head

I don't know what's wrong

I'm feeling very messed up.
phone consult with my psychologist on Monday morning - cannot wait

maybe I've stuffed things up

why are people so nice to me

I try to be a good person

a caring person

I try - but sometimes like now I just crash into a negative thinking pattern with horrible self thoughts

im very bored

nothing to do

it's very isolating been home

In response to: Re: Need to vent

Re: Need to vent

It is isolating yes @BlueBay

I'm not looking forward to my birthday on Monday next week

I hate to say it but it's true

I have to identify that feeling if it's there right?

Take care friend

Re: Need to vent

Here with you @BlueBay

You are worth it hon 💕💕💕💕

In response to: Re: Need to vent

Re: Need to vent

You are definitely a good person @BlueBay as well as a very loving person. And I have always found you to be an extremely caring lady. If you have a fault, it could be that you care too much. And that is to your detriment.

Please take care, and rest assured that you are indeed loved and appreciated. By your family, friends and forum buddies. 💞

In response to: Re: Need to vent

Re: Need to vent

@BlueBay you said it yourself- you try to be a good and caring person. The fact that you try tells me that you inherently are a good and caring person- people who aren't good or kind probably don't value being good & kind 💗

Everyone in life needs support, sometimes more than others - and you absolutely deserve all the support you need.

If you'd like some 1:1 support/a chat between now and Monday morning when you see your psychologist,
