I just wanted to take the time to welcome you to PC. I have no words of wisdom. I lost my job to bipolar last year. I was able to find a new job with much less stress but a huge pay cut. But that’s what I have to deal with in order to ward off another episode. Less stress = less money for me.

I would agree with skeezyks in saying try not to catastrophize. It’s hard but try not to let your thoughts get the best of you. Consider therapy if you don’t currently have one as I think you would benefit from having someone to talk to IRL about these issues.
