Sometime yesterday afternoon I went to Service Alternatives for a mock interview to find out that it got canceled. Apparently, my employment specialist send two e-mails the other night saying she couldn't get a hold of either of the people that were supposed to do a interview practice with me and that the appointment is canceled. She was upset about my "communication breakdown" and I was trying not to cry, but it did not help that I was having a bad day. I had a huge headache and was feeling really emotional, I began to burst into tears. I could tell she hate to see and feel bad that she accidentally made me upset, she asked what was wrong and what was hurting me. She then told me to talk to her as a friend and not like a job coach at the moment. She really cared about me that she wanted to protect me from those jobs that don't have nice people working there. I wonder if she noticed me rocking back and forth a bit.

I left her office distressed and still feeling upset, that I kept rubbing my neck for comfort from the pain inside. I wonder if she had seen me do that. Earlier today she came to the library to come check on me because she had been worried about me. She also told me before she left that I could come to her whenever I need her.

Why do I get attached to people who are nice to me? Should I mentioned my depression and other issues to her? I was trying to keep it professional and adult-like, but I feel like I'm falling apart.

Oh yeah, and I ordered another self-help book called Overcoming Depression.

Hey, SilentGirl808. Of course, people like that make us feel loved and cared for. And I think we are prone to really attach to them when we didn't get enough of that in the past or possible even currently.
