Some things in my life are better, slow improvements. I finally have access to mental health care. I think the Prozac they put me on is helping. I need to get more mentally organized so I can concentrate better and get things done.

I am studying accounting. I made 84 on my first test. I think I should have done better but that is a passing grade.

I have gone from hopeless unemployment to two job offers this week. One job offer was a walking tour guide job. That sounds like it would be fun. I am supposed to hear back from the manager on that one. A long time friend who is still working at the doctor's office I left 3 months ago called me. She wants me to come back to work there on an as needed basis. A normal person would jump at the doctor's office job. However, this is the job I was working that caused me to spiral down into a terrible depression to begin with. I actually liked the work I did. I loved the patients. I just got tired of the constant meanness and petty backstabbing. I still remember being called into the office manager's office because I forgot to stock some item in an exam room. The tyrannical junior manager got mad because she had to stock the item and she went to the office manager. I still remember having panic and anxiety attacks when I worked there. I talked to my therapist this morning and he told me it would not be in my best interest to go back over there. I pretty much agree. Making the money would be good but I don't want to deal with abuse. I would not mind working there if they treated me with kindness and respect. I am still thinking it over.

Any thoughts or input would be appreciated.

I agree with your therapist that it would probably not be a good idea to go back to your former job as things like office politics tend to stay the same.

Hopefully, the tour guide might be a good fit and they make you an offer.

I'm glad school is going well for you.

Good luck with the job search.

You need to concentrate on the future not the past. I think the walking tour guide sounds like a good fit. Stress could affect your performance at school and that would be the very last thing you want.

Well done on your test 84 sounds excellent to me.

Sounds like things are starting to look up for you, that's great to hear And I have to agree with TheOriginalMe, 84 is great so well done

I think if I was you I wouldn't go anywhere near the doctors job again, you left for a good reason and I think it's wise you stay away to prevent the depression and anxiety getting worse again.

Tour guide job sounds good though, I remember you being disappointed when it fell through before so maybe this is the opportunity you need

Waterknob, you are beginning to get well. You are working toward a better future. Those people mistreated you before. They would likely do it again. Also, be careful you do not lose the medical benefits you are now receiving (something to check on).
