I hate where I'm standing right now. I hate being who I am. I hate being this way. I hate everything about me.

I hate that I'm physically a small person and I hate that I got physically injured in my pass and I can't do my old job anymore. I was a nurses aid. This was my job. This was my field. This was what I love to do. I hate that I can't do it anymore.

This is the second job that I'm trying this spring and both have started the physical pain again from my previous work injury. D**m and d**m! I have not yet quit this last job but I know I will come to a point where I will not be able to stand the physical pain.

I'm so disapointed in myself! So mad at myself! So hate who I am!

This is not your fault, hon! The blame is not yours! It must really suck to feel like you're feeling right now, not to be able to work because of severe pain.
I know that you're looking for a job not as physical. Something will turn up! But I know, you want to do what you love to do and what you're trained for.

Time0, you're much more than your job! You're YOU, a person with a huge heart carrying wonderful things inside.

I know you need the money though... but your health has to come first. You coped before when you didn't work, so can't you handle this without you working, just until you find yourself a better job?

Please, don't hate yourself! We all love you!

(((((((((((((((time0))))))))))))))))

Time, we don't each other all that personally, but your plight touched me nonethless.

I have no advice, but I have kind and good thoughts for you. I find you very special. I really do!!!

((((((((((((((((Time0)))))))))))) That must be so discouraging to not be able to do what you love. I am so sorry that physically you are unable. Please dbn't harm yourself more by trying to stay in a job that you are not physically able to perform. Can you try and be a little bit more cmpassionate with yourself? You deserve it. You are such a wonderful person. Try and be kind to yourself.

Not only do I have pain from my previous work injury, now I think that today I have pulled a muscle in the back of my leg. Work

This is not going good.

For the last 2 weeks I have been sleeping about 3 to 4 hours a night because I keep thinking negative things about myself. Work

Having a hard time. Work

and I don't know how to say this to hubby. No wonder he doesn't think much of me. Who would blame him.

Oh, time0! I'm so sorry about your situation!
I almost begin to cry when I feel the despair in your words...
If you only could see what we're seeing!!!! Because we see an amazing woman! A woman who have fought for such a long time, never to give up. I woman filled with love and valuable feelings inside.
This will not hold for long, hon... You need some rest and to find an other job more suitable for you.
Please, talk to your hubby and explain to him how you're feeling.
This will only bring you further and further down, my friend. I'm here to support you and listen to you and so are others here in PC. Do you know why???
Because we love you! You're important to us!
You're a part of us! You've helped us many times by your caring words.

Time, I really hope the sun shines through the storm clouds very soon. You do not deserve feeling like this.

My thoughts are with you.

Well, I told hubby I can't go to work tomorrow for sure. I can't even walk on that leg. I will not say what he replied.

I am so tired I can't think. Can somebody please tell me if I have to put heat or ice on this kind of injury. I just can't think. Work

It's hard to block hubby's words. I'm living with this man.

Thank you all so much. You are much too kind to me. I appreciate your caring, your time, your words of wisdom, your encouragement, your understanding. You all are gifts from love. Thank you! Work Work

((((((((((((((((time0))))))))))))))) I am so sorry that you are feeling so poorly. It is too bad that your husband does not see and appreciate you like you deserve. Make sure you take care of you. It really sounds like this job is too much for you physically. Please consider finding something else that suits you better.
