Hi all,

I graduated last year from University, and I entered into a career as a Sales professional in a growing company. I had no real right to get that job, as I excelled in my interview and frankly was recklessly overconfident. I'm earning good money, I have a company car, expense account and a great commission scheme; all amazing for someone just out of university - don't worry, I'm not boasting... You'll see.

My Sales Director went on holiday for a month. I willingly took on loads of responsibility and publicly set high targets.

I am failing miserably due to a massive relapse in my mental health. Depression, anxiety, confidence, concentration, self worth, GONE.

I know this will pass, but it's compounded by this pressure. What's worse is, I can't motivate myself. I just want to lie face down on a big soft mattress while someone strokes my head and someone else plays lovely music until forever.

Stupid brain.
