Does anyone else turn into the cry baby from the blue lagoon in response to stress? When I start a new job, I worry about getting fired for the first six months. I have been at my current job for over two years and the employees who worked there when I started remember my crying at work. I think a co-worker caught me again today.
I want to get a good job. How am I ever going to get a good job when I can't even imagine myself having a good job? I would probably just cry all over and worry myself into a headache about the idea of getting fired. I hate work. I hate having to depend on someone else for money. I cry in the grocery store after school sometimes. I have cried in class sometimes. A AAAAA! Am I a big cry baby? Why does my own positive thinking seem to malfunctioning? I used to be pretty decent at positive thinking and perception shifting. Crying at work Crying at work

Dear Hopefull,

I have been there done that.... many of us females tend to CRY when we get upset, stressed and even when we are happy - it is a God given release valve to help us HEAL from the inside out. Hang in there and do not beat yourself up so hard. You are but only human...

But, I will be meeting my new store manager tomorrow and I don't want him to find out about my odd crying spells on his first day. I hope I sleep good tonight and don't cry at work tomorrow. Please!

I hope you are feeling a little better. I respond to work stress with angry tears far too many times to be constructive.

Rhapsody said it so well ........

Please be kind to yourself.

Surprise. He got the pleasure of meeting the cry baby from the blue lagoon yesterday. I think every co-worker/supervisor/manager saw me crying yesterday. JAAAAAAA! Why am I such a cry baby? I cry worse than some babies! I hate everything.
My T is going to really love talking to me today.

Never mind your T loving talking to you .... you just take what you need from your T, ok?

My heart goes out to you.
