Congratulations on the near-arrival of your baby! Hoping you will have help because most new mothers need others to assist them in organizing the new routine. Perhaps in the tasks ahead you will be able to find tangible ways to organize thoughts with actions. Motherhood gave me many strengths I never knew I had (even though I have OCD and PTSD).

You might want to check with the employment office to consider what services you could receive if you have to quit due to stress reasons. I called in that card once myself and didn't know then I had bonafide mental disorders.

Meanwhile, back to the job, if you could develop a written daily plan showing your duties and how much each task takes, perhaps you could prove to the boss you have too much on your plate: there's only so much time in the day to do a job efficiently. Are you able to ask for her management assistance? That way you could have a progressive action together rather than locking horns.

Take care in the journey. Susan Quinn
