They said I've had 8 or 9 absenses or equal to missing a day every two weeks and they were writing me up. Made me sign a paper. This is WITH doctors notes! Its not like I'm going out to the movies. I am so depressed. I feel like doing something destructive. Monday, at work, I was reprimanded for something - oh yeah... I couldn't breathe well! They made me go back and do dishes and said I wasn't allowed to "have restrictions"! Then I went back in and did dishes, taking frequent breaths of "fresh air". I was SOOO angry! I wanted to do some serious harm to my boss. I guess I'm just "this side of sane"... My psych meds have been upped lately plus a bad reaction to one that I was taken off. Then I took the day off Tues. and Wed. BECAUSE I couldn't breathe! My asthma was in the "yellow" zone meaning, I can't breathe well, but not so bad that I needed to be in the ER. So I went to the dr. He gave me a treatment. I also got a new med. Told to take off a day of work. I've also had migraines (brand new!) lately that have been horrific and I've needed shots and dark and quiet for. Also, the beginning of December, I was in the hospital for five days because I had an intestinal infection- was on morphine. So I get written up because I'm bipolar, and get infections and have asthma??? Can I help that?? How can they fire you for needing to be well? Not only that, but the job is BORING as all BORING. Where's the incentive to do dishes, except MAKING myself, which I have been, but really.... one day I couldn't COUNT anymore because I was having some kind of panic attack and I couldn't speak without stuttering. I got the job to a) pay off bills more quickly and b) to get me out of the house.... was supposed to be GOOD for me. And here I am 36 in a week or so and being talked down to like I'm 15 and have my first job and am an idiot. Plus "Don't talk to anybody else about this...." they said. Oh lovely! I won't be told to keep secrets.
