i hate to cop out & just say i can't work anymore, but that's what i feel like doing. it's just too much.
has anybody else had to come to the point where they just couldn't handle working full time anymore? i know i've read some posts where people have mentioned that they hadn't been able to work at all for a long time.
thanks

Yes, Susan, and I was the last person I thought it would ever happen to. I was always 'superachiever' at school and the one who went into work on weekends. Now if I get 4 hours volunteering in a week I consider that a fine achievement. I spent a long time wondering when I was going to get back to the person I once was (i.e. Humpty Dumpty). I now understand there has been some sort of profound change. It has taken a long time, but I accept it and am better for having done so.
Remember that your health is more important than any job.
