I just did it out of stress today.......

I woke up late for work because I was so depressed last night. As you all know how restricted my job is when it comes to the timing. I was 25 minutes late to top the cream layer. But then I just decided to take a day off by giving a notice for sick leave to my manager. I have never done this before. I emailed my manager that I am logging off from work as I am not able to go ahead due to my health issue. I am feeling extremely stressed out and I feel like I am getting hit by my panic attack today. Ofcourse, my job won't understand my depression issues so I had to make up something and I feel extremely stressed out for this as well. I think my day is going to be worst one today. So tired of the mess I am in right now.

I understand how bad you must be feeling. You really need a break. I really wish things settle out there for you

I am feeling extremely pathetic at the moment. And I just feel like sleeping because I don't have to face myself. I feel I am into depression again. Because it has been a month I am not able to perform well.

I used to take “mental health” days off from teaching when needed. I never had an easy, non stressful job. I hope you are feeling better.

I would agree with Kristal, it is indeed a stressful job. Today I started my job well early on time. Though I am feeling stressed out I am still able to manage.

@kepweng My husband was a college professor and chairman of two departments. He was never stressed. I was a part time professor. You’re right!

I am just trying to calm down myself today. I am finding it very hard because I am extremely restless and confused. If I will talk to anyone at the moment personally I would mess the conversation as well. Right now I am alone at home as always just not working today. Maybe I mylot all day. I may feel better that way.

I have a very bad habit of over thinking. I am so afraid of everything. When I am stressed I literally can't do anything. And I end up eating. Which is horrible.

@Archie0 ohh I see, that's really bad... I can't say stop because that's who you are. Eating is not really good as well. anyway, chocolate and ice cream and cake still are the best relaxant for me. Good luck.

You should try to calm down, stop overthinking and take life a bit more relaxed.

Everyone asks me to do this. Sad thing is I really can't help myself calm down. But I am feeling slightly better today.

@Archie0 It is easier to suggest to someone to calm down that to do it.

I have to try to collect the pieces of my stress and fix myself. We are so so busy in mending our life that we forget we have scattered away. I feel very helpless today. Thank you for your kind words Muhammad. I hope you have a wonderful day or night.
