Re: Self Harm

thats normal @Angels333  its been long documented that people not working lose desire to work very quickly lol , youll be okay once you get there

Re: Self Harm

Hey @Flying_Hams @TAB @BlueBay  thanks for your words of encouragement.    I know this will be good for me in the long run.   And I do care about the environment so cleaning up rubbish  is important. 

 

There is a part of me that never want's to go back to work..... swim teaching or redeployment.   But I don't really have an option.... you're so right @TAB  the desire to work really faded fast for me....

Re: Self Harm

it will get easier, try not to think about it too much @Angels333  turning up is the main thing, then it will become new norm Cat Happy

Re: Self Harm

Hi @Angels333 - you will be able to do this. It will be hard to get motivated at the beginning, but after a short while I am sure it will become routine. I am glad that you have a job to be redeployed to - better than unemployment in the longrun. You have so many coping strategies to deal with anxiety, you will do it, I know you will. Also, remind yourself it's completely normal to be anxious when starting a new job and meeting new people; most people experience this, even those without MH issues.

Re: Self Harm

I had group therapy today which was a disaster,  we have now had 2 facilitators change in the last 5 weeks.    

 

I feel like I'm having a panic attack.   I think it's about work.   So much anxiety tonight.

Not sure who else to tag....

Re: Self Harm

Hey @Angels333
I'm about to head to bed so may not reply.
Why did they change them for ?

Re: Self Harm

Sorry you had a double bunger, @Angels333 

High staff turnover is a huge problem in mental health services.  HUGE.

 

You can see the value of the work, but still, if it is not valued in the workplace.. can be hard.  Teaching swimming would prbably take a LOT of energy.
