So sad
I have suffered with anxiety since I was a child. In January I found out that my hours at work we're going g to be cut and so I had to leave the job I loved at worked at for over 23 years as I could not afford to live on less money. I found a new job straight away , working in a simler job. But I hate it. I have few friends and the friends I do have were from my previous job and I get to upset when I try to see them. I'm just so sad, and burst into tears for no reason. I just want my old life back

I'm so sorry to hear that you're going through this and although I don't really have any advice at this time, I can empathize. 

This last year has been difficult for me as I'm dealing with a lot of work stress, too ... and lately there's been so much turnover at my workplace that those who I was friends with have left for other jobs whereas I've been reluctant to do so because this workplace is close to where I live. It's just that many of those who have been hired are much younger than I and I can't really relate to them, although I get along and work okay with them. Work is just stressful because there are too many projects and problems going on at one time and the workloads are both fast-paced and heavy, so there's no time to take a breath. 
I really do hope things work out better for you.
