Once successful
Anxiety Support / by ashleym315

...See more I was always so happy, so positive, so confident. I did struggle with depression and anxiety maybe about 10years ago while in a mentally abusive relationship, but feel like I had completely gotten over that for the most part. As I am now married and we are trying to conceive. My husband is amazing and supportive with my mental health, but works away during the week. I also work from home which can get isolating. I am work in a mid-senior level corporate position, I have always been pretty successful with my work. In January I quit my job with a multi billion dollar company that I had been with the last 8 years due to a horrible manager who would not allow me to really move forward unfortunately. I found another position before leaving that company, my new position is fully work from home (which I thought I wanted), more money and more time off. My new position offers a lot of freedom some days with working from home, but a lot of it is associate complaints and most of my daily work is pretty negative in nature. I was ‘coached’ by my manager on something last week, I usually do fine with things like this… but I felt sick and depressed for days. All the little things are starting to become big things and I don’t like this position for many reasons. I don’t know what to do. I can’t quit without another job, but I feel hopeless. I don’t think I like my field of work at all anymore and it’s causing stress and hopelessness. I have bills, a house and college loans and my husband can’t pay it all… I need a job.. and I can’t see taking a HUGE pay cut for a less stressful job, I will take a little bit of one to be happier, but can’t cut that much. I just feel hopeless and not sure how to move forward.
