Grrr...was feeling really down today, and was irritable to some people at work, which makes them want to avoid me, which makes me feel worse. I'm so mad at myself!! Why do I keep doing this? I just annoy people and drive them away. Not that I blame them. If I were them, I wouldn't want to deal with me either.

How can I cope with sad/angry feelings at work? I can't do things that I might try at home (read a book, watch a funny movie, etc) when I'm at work. Can't even really escape for a while and take a walk outside. I have a desk job where I answer phones throughout the day, so it's really hard for me to get away from my cubicle, unless it's during my lunch hour. There are so many times that I've sat at my desk fighting back tears or resisting the urge to pound my head against the wall.

I don't know what to do. I mean, this isn't exactly my dream job, but I don't want to lose it either. Just trying to hang in there until I can figure out something better to do with my life. But, some days I really question whether I can deal with this job, or any job, anymore.

I'm so confused. Any advice? Thanks!
