Couch 122 - Doin' what we do!

art come out come out wherever you are!

Hi all. *waves to art*

Feeling kind of down in the dumps today. Not sure if I'd consider it depression or just a normal feeling. I do have depression, I'm just not sure if this is why I'm feeling low. Can't get myself to work. The more I think about it I think it is my depression. I thought the not working was procrastination but maybe not.

Butterfly saw your other thread and I'm so sorry your t did that

Thank you growly.

I think that happens with any customer support service. I had the same problems with my old job. Customers want something and it looks like all will go well and then kaboom, something comes unto scuttle it. And I'm talking multi-million dollar projects for the government. IT and such are thankless jobs. So thank you for what you do.

Is this message directed at me? Sorry if that is a stupid question, I honestly am not sure.

No it was for Quiet Mind about the IT business. Got outside the queue again. That's what I get for having a slow thought process.

Hello couch! Took the morning off because I was tired, but now I'm cross-eyed from it, so I should have just come in.

Hope you're all having a happy Monday!

Okay, thanks for the info Fharraige.

Hi stressed. Hope you are having a good Monday too. Wish I could say I was having a good Monday.

Huh, what happened butterfly?

I'm sooo tired. Had to explain a decision I made around a 100 times today. A friend said: "Demunie, you're gonna get some mental health issues if you go on like that" ...

How can people be so blind to what's going on in others?

A young lady once told me i couldnt go on as i was, getting all excited over work, that i would surely explode, like from high blood pressure. She was right, i burned out. That was near the end of my career. Somebody said they thought i was headed for a nervous breakdown near the beginning too though. Somehow i made it 30 years. With breaks! take care.

Issues with t, personal religious issues, and other things. Just feels like too much to deal with.

Yes, please.

I really hope she didn't delete her a/c (sorta kinda remember her saying she would).

Art talk to us about it. We can help I think

Art hasn't deleted her account - she's just taking a break.

But I hope she knows she is loved and missed.

Gah - these shots get worse and worse in side effects each time. God, I feel like crap.

Hugs....

I dunno what happened to my report but I got to kvetch with colleagues as we rechecked every single thing possible. No clue why dafuq the network port on the codec server failed. No one touched it.

At least I know now that even in the event of a complete network failure, we can still use the old dedicated phone lines.

I've apologised to the bigshots. When I got home, I regretted trying to share because my father mocked me for being stupid. He always is quick to talk about how he would have done things and how I'm slow in the brain, don't think fast, don't use common sense.

I hope you're OK, Art. Crocus too. TrailRunner, are you OK?
Hugs if wanted, Butterfly.

I half wish I never joined govt. As lowly support staff, I've made mistakes costing thousands of taxpayer dollars. No amount of Sh eases how horrible I feel. I'm keenly aware of how my work indirectly impacts the services rendered to the public even though I'm just IT and rarely face irate people directly.
Hugs!

Hugs!

Hugs to ATAT too.

I hope I didn't miss anyone out!

Good morning (or evening, or...) everyone

*Puts pie and coffee on the coffee table*

Help yourselves
(Not sure what kind of pie it is - I'm just sure it isn't pumpkin pie)

Well, that was one very long and very sleepless night.

Pie for breakfast sounds like just the ticket.

Thanks for the hugs.

Pdoc wants to switch me from zoloft to lamictal. Told me to think about it. How am I supposed to think about it? I don't know anything about them, can't she just tell me what we should do?

Have you tried asking on the nedication forum thats what I did when I changed to lithium but ultimately I tried it and it worked.

I haven't. I just spoke to pdoc again and it wouldn't be switching it'd be an addition to for a little while to try and stabilize myself. I'm going to start it tomorrow and we'll go from there.
