That is it I am done. I can't handle it anymore. Just saw my pdoc and he is saying I need to emotionally prepare for being out of work for an extended period of time. He originally had me going back to work on April 15th which would have had me out of work two months. Now he wants me to call work and find out about long term disability.
I had seen the substitute therapist again today for the second time this week. My therapist is on vacation. She asked me twice today if I was thinking of ending my life and I told her no but now the thoughts are getting stronger. I can't handle it anymore. I need to go back to work. I am afraid of losing my job. Why do I even bother to hang on? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hi Crook I don't know why I am hanging on either, I am in such pain. But I am hanging on and I think you are hanging on because you posted here.
Do you think you are able to go back to work? Maybe work out something part time? Do you need a work release from the pdoc and if so is he refusing to give you one?

No unfortunately I don't think I am ready to go back. Last time I went back for two months and ended up in the hospital again. I am never going to the hospital again or doing ECT again. You know I never thought about if I could just go back without his permission. Might have to think about that. He talked about part time before but now he is not even laying it out as an option.
I would rather just throw in the towel and say forget it all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It's rough I don't know you personally so I can't say if work would be good or harmful to you. But if you've let him know how important this is for you it is something you might consider... but please try to consider what would be best overall. I don't want you to end up in the hospital again. I am trying to avoid the hospital too which is why I've still been going into work even though almost every day I can't stay sometimes i leave after an hour sometimes I am able to stay the whole day.
Good luck I know how it is and I know how it feels. Please keep trying.

I am so tired. I just want to stay in bed all day but I can't because I have to go pick up my new meds. I don't know why I am bothering they are not going to work.

That sounds really hard. I'm sorry things are discouraging at the moment. I understand the feeling of being immobilized. It sucks. Sometimes it helps me to try to accept it rather than get pissed about it. The more I get upset, the deeper it gets.
My therapist reminds me that everything is changing and that tomorrow things will be different. If I notice all the things that do change, even the little things, I feel less stuck. Hope this helps.
