I was at work this morning, I work in a supermarket. We have a new manager and he is turning the whole place upside down. Yes its a business and profits do come first. The thing is change is something most people struggle with let alone having other problems to deal with emotionally. Anyways the bakery manager came in and was sitting down in his normal clothes so I asked why he wasn't working today? He replied he had been suspended for leaving work an hour early.

My stomach chugged when I heard this. I know at times when I feel I just have to "get away" when I feel "Panic" or "anxiety" real bad coming on me I have left 10mins early. Always clocked out so as not to "steal" time from them. But now I'm worried they will be watching me, me, me and will fire me.

I haven't got the guts to sit down and talk to personnel about my mental health. They know I was in detox 4yrs ago because the time off I had to take off, but they don't know about any of my other Mental health problems. I'm thinking maybe I should sit and talk to them?? I dont want "special" previledges I do manage to hold down my job, though working in a busy supermarket is SOOOOOOOOOOO not the right job for me LOL! but as others he proberbly understand when the panic and fears hit all rationality goes out the window and I have to just get home.
