I'm not sure how this is going to go but I should probably give it a try. Don't use my voice very often but I'm choking inside so have to get some of this crap out......

I have survived the first day at my new workplace

why did I have to be the one to move?

scared

what if I am totally useless and mess this place up too?

am I really rubbish at my job? Surely I would have an inclination if I was?

does 19 years service count for nothing? Am I being punished?

lost and alone

I have no one I can turn to

Hard to trust when all you know is hurt and rejection

So much going on inside but it's all jumbled and knotted together

scared I will end up back in the dark place, can't fight it again....

type....delete.....type.....delete

These last few weeks Ive spent a lot of time on my own with not being at work and its made me realise just how pathetic my life is.

Empty.....

days sitting staring and lose hours at a time....

am I losing my mind?????

is this what my future holds?

if it is I dont fucking want it!

forcing myself to try to feel something except hatred for myself but I just cant, no matter how hard I try

@crimsonLime6525 Hey Lime - You've been in my thoughts alot lately. I know it's hard to find the words sometimes to say how we feel - what we're thinking. Idk - maybe some of it is we worry - what others will think of us - Especially with what we think of ourselves. Some of it fear - making ourselves vulnerable. Sometimes maybe we ignore things - sweep it under the rug - pretend it isn't there - but we trip over the bump sometimes and fall on our faces. I'm not really sure where I was going with this - I guess - I just wanted you to know you were in the heart and mind of someone today

Be gentle with yourself and your thoughts

@crimsonLime6525 That's awesome Lime! I'm so proud of you! May I ask - was it as bad as you thought or maybe not quite? Sorry lol - I get too nosy sometimes - no pressure to answer lol :) I think I would be a nervous wreck on that first day!

Yay you! :D

Woke up early hours of Tuesday morning and as you do was checking my emails, reading news headlines and discovered that the company I work for had announced to the media that it was planning on making 6000 redundancies, almost 20% of its workforce. Got a message from my boss later that day to ask me to join a conference call in the afternoon where I was told that yes, what had been said in the news was correct and we are now in a period of consultation regarding our jobs being at risk. Not handling this well, only went through this a few years ago but nowhere near the scale of numbers (last time they only lost 400 due to restructuring) I live above work so if I lose my job I'm technically homeless.

im absolutely sick of this, don't I deserve a fucking break from things? It just seems like things start to settle a little then something comes along and knocks me with a sledgehammer, how much shit does one person have to put up with!!

sorry to anyone who read this as I know my language isn't the nicest but I'm just quite angry, upset and scared
