However, the incident caused me to experience significant anxiety, which resulted in my being unable to sleep and having to call in sick to work tonight due to a lack of sleep. I'm worried what HR might do once the incident is reported to them. It was a minor incident, and I have no history of safety violations, and I fully abided by all company policy in reporting and cooperating. But you never know with the person who will be responsible for assessing the case. I may be looking at a written warning, or possibly worse. And that has me worrying. When I worry, I often go into a spiral of depression from the catastrophizing of it.

I have the first three days off next week. Then there's Thursday, which is the day off we get for the stat since we don't normally work Fridays. So I have all week off next week. I haven't seen the schedule to confirm it, all I have is the form I put in for the time off and received back with 'APPROVED' stamped on it. I know I shouldn't be worrying, and maybe it's just a byproduct of worrying about the incident, but I can't help but worry about whether I really have the time off or not because I haven't seen the schedule. I know it's absolutely stupid, but I just can't help it.

What I'll do is on Monday I'll text a guy at work and ask him to send me a copy of the night's schedule. That should allay my fears.

Hope things are going okay. This sounds to me like it was just a mistake, and I'd be surprised if you get a warning for it. However most companies you need to get warned at least twice before any serious action would be taken, and the warnings drop off usually in a set time. I once screwed up REALLY badly at my job (an error in judgment) and I came clean to my manager right away. She had to go through a process, but in the end she just gave me a verbal warning and said she was satisfied I was remorseful and wouldn't do it again. Luckily I had a good manager at the time or things could have gone badly for me.

I hate weekends so much.

I mean, I can (and oftentimes do) fill the void with reruns and by binging Drew’s sitcom, but it only helps so much.

I - I pretty much need him 25/8, embarrassing as that is.

I been trying :hug to keep myself as busy as I can to fight my depression.

I'm feeling alright in the morning and part of the afternoon. Feeling more depressed now that it's late afternoon.

I bought two flowering plants yesterday. Today I transplanted them into larger containers and put them on my patio. That makes four pots I have altogether. I'm so delighted with my mini-garden. Also I put up a hummingbird feeder. Plus I've put up a pretty welcome sign on my door. It all looks nice. I'm in such a good mood.

It's great that you into planting. I did it myself and it made me feel better just watching the plants grow day-by-day. Though I felt like I was not too successful with planting. I guess it was because I live in an apartment; and the patio where my plants were are shaded all day practically.

I'm feeling a little bit better this afternoon than I have in quite a while. My car is making some progress now with work, so I think it should be ready pretty soon. I hope I'm not speaking too soon. In the past I've told other people some good news and then it turned out to be false. I hate it when that happens.

Also the Jacuzzi at where I live is now up and running for the first time in a month. It was working great and then one day the carpenters, working on remodeling the stairway nearby, accidentally punctured a pipe under the cement causing the Jacuzzi to drain. So, in this month, I've had two nice things going for me to cope with my depression and loneliness just taken away and it didn't make any sense.

I’m asking :hug my psychiatrist to increase my medication :sadhug or change my medications due my depression going up

A typical day today. The morning was a little bit busy. I took a long walk to a store to pick up a couple of things that were well needed for now. Not much going on in the afternoon and it's dragging.

As far as my car goes, as of now, it's so near and yet so far for when it will be ready. I really miss it, especially to go shopping at that grocery store I always shopped at. In the last couple of weeks I feel like I've been eating lousy quality food and it cost more.

I feel okay and then I feel so, so down. I sleep all the time, so much. I don't socialize much. I'm up and down.

This is only the beginning of the day right now. I hope today will be a good one. My days, lately, have not been that great. Last night I got some news about my car from the garage. Another little set-back, but the mechanic was assuring me that I will get my car back by Friday or Saturday. We'll see. All I need is a miracle (that's a song from Mike and the Mechanics. Get it?).

This hasn't been a great year for me so far. So much went wrong and it's only four months into it. My sister got sick, the landline phone shut off for no reason and I had to replace it, my nice neighbor got sick, and now my car broke down and has been tied up for a while. I hope the rest of this year gets better.

It’s really dumb but I always feel so empty after the day’s episode is over and I won’t see Drew till the next day. Watching older episodes and his sitcom only helps so much.

Me too.

That suits me well.

[Rose76]

I'm fairly ok. A touch of anxiety has been bugging me.

Other people's expectations have me feeling uneasy.

[Buffy01]

I been feeling :eek like I can’t trust myself :sadhug lately.

I'm feeling much better today. I got my car back and it's so nice. For the past three-and-a-half weeks, it had been a struggle without it. Especially when it came to groceries. I ordered online and the food quality was terrible and cost more. Just think it was only yesterday, right at this time, that I had a little meltdown and cried because I had the food delivered and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I felt like I had reached a breaking point at that time. Yesterday I only got enough to just last me for the weekend. On Monday I plan to go back to where I always shopped at.

[Rose76]

I'm keeping it together more or less, but I don't have a good plan to follow.

I have the same problem on my patio - no direct sun. I like that, actually, because I wouldn't enjoy sitting out there, if I wasn't shaded. But I've been moving my plants off the patio to where they are in the sun in the common courtyard area. Then I bring them back in the evening. They've become like pets, in a way. I never gardened before, so I'm just winging it. I google stuff to learn what I should do. Watching them grow is rewarding.

Today is about halfway over now. I've been pretty busy so far but now I feel like I've run out of stuff to do. Yesterday I went shopping for just half the stuff I needed, and had driven to the store this time. I did that before cleaning. It was so nice to go to a store and pick out what I see and want instead of that stupid online ordering that I had been doing for the last three weeks. Last night I got a message inviting me to a ham luncheon at the church I used to go to. I left that church years ago out of disgust so I'm not going.

Nothing much lined up for the rest of the day. I've picked out a movie I'd like see. I hope it's good.

This is the third day, at least, that I've been physically sick. Tummy problems. No appetite. Nausea. I think it will blow over.

Today doesn't feel like a holiday. It is beautiful weatherwise. I wish I was up to going outside.

I been fighting :sadhug my depression by making myself get up and move around :.

I went grocery shopping early this morning at my favorite store. It's been exactly one month (31 days) since I went there. I was disappointed that no one remarked that they hadn't seen me in a while. On the other hand, I didn't recognize anyone. I didn't go there for a while because of my car being serviced and away.

As I got there, the car made a little noise but when I drove home it sounded great. So I don't know. Even though my car was tied up for a while with costly work, I'm scared that something else is going to happen.

A week before my car broke down, I was telling myself that I should sell it. For a good long time before the car broke down, it was running great. But now it doesn't feel the same. I wished I had sold it when I told myself to! I'm having anxiety and depression about it. I'm planning to get rid of it within a couple of months from now. My car is either 16 or 17 years old.

I'm feeling depressed about the car and also because of this time of year. When spring comes I feel depressed a lot. I haven't been sleeping well lately. And this time of year reminds me of other years at this time when things went bad. This year, so far, is no exception.

absolutely no ups the past few days

at a complete loss of what to do with my life
