Because of all the crap I am dealing with at work. Depression is coming back hard. Now I want to divorce my wife and leave my kids. I want to leave my job. Basically destroy the good life I have made for myself. T won’t answer any emails. She said she wants to discuss this in session. Work is so bad that things out of my control like my computer blue screening and needing a new one I get blamed for. It has just gotten past the ridiculous.

I don’t know how to stop self sabotaging.

Take a step back from your feelings and try to see this as temporary. If it weren't for your illness you would feel fine. It's not who you really are. You don't self sabotage on purpose. Take it easy on yourself. I've done the same thing many times. I've self sabotaged all my life, but not on purpose. I give myself lots of slack. I'm ill. I don't want to be, but it's my reality. Things can get better. Don't give up on yourself.

Try, if you can, to separate what's going on at work from what you have at home. If you do what you are thinking about, you'll regret it for the rest of your life...

I was really irritable earlier today at work. Thankfully it passed. Then I got depressed at home, but thankfully that passed too. Wait five minutes, and my mood changes unfortunately.

I do the same thing. When I begin to think like this towards my husband I start writing down all the reasons why he is a good husband and what he does to show me loves me in a way no one else ever would or will. It may not work for you but so far it is working for me.

Lawyer says I should try to handle my work issues through our internal EEO office since I haven’t been fired yet. Also to ask for very specific accommodations.
