I feel like ive been through too much the last 2 years and realistically, I need like 2-3 months off of working or at least only working a little bit (10-20 hours) so I have some mental health time... days off to reflect. Journal. See counselors. Hang out with friends. Get out in the sun. Go to church. Volunteer.
Exercise ALOT.
But it’s not gonna happen because my husband won’t work right now because he’s taking HIS “mental health time” for several months so I’m forced to work all the time and just have to cope with my pain. Lately I often go into work practically in tears because the depression is so bad.
No one gives me a break.
So I have to think outside the box. There’s only two possible solutions here:
1) find a work-from-Home situation that pays a lot of money or a one time thing that awards a lot of money so I can take a break
OR
2) more realistically ... I need to find a healthy coping mechanism and healing process that can be carried out WHILE working.
Any ideas, besides pumping myself full of meds?
