Legally you can't get fired, but the pressure from work loads, co-workers, bosses & owners make it extremely difficult to take time off during the day - MAJOR guilt trips that we don't need.
Everyone says to hang in there and something will come about, but that's so much easier said than done. All I can say is I'm looking for the same thing and good luck in your search also.

You hit the nail on the head. There is so much pressure from all of the above. I wish you luck in your search. The bad thing is when I'm not working I'm too exhausted to do anything but sleep. My medical doctor is prescribing my depression meds. I've been using him as a psychiatrist but I only see him every 3 months. Every time I go there I have more weird physical problems. He orders tests and they show nothing wrong. I can't afford more x-rays and tests when I believe it is my mind messing up my body. My medical doc is very sweet and tries to be helpful but I think at this point I need psychiatric help. Thanks for responding.
