Title: Hello
Post by: Mandillion on April 30, 2012, 02:48:53 PM

Hello all,

I'm not new to this having been treated with CBT, medication and Psych for about a year now.

The difference for me is that I am now on long term sick leave with a strong possibility that I will be unemployed (and probably unemployable) in the near future. My company has been very understanding, but i fear that this tolerance of my illness will run out soon.

I've always suffered from depression, but now i can't fight it any more. I'm not sure why I'm sharing this, possibly just in the hope that somebody will tell me it's all going to be alright.

Anyway....here I am.

Kind Regards.

Hello - I'm new here too.     I am unemployed at the moment and it is frustrating. Hoping to get at least some part time work.  Its hard to be rational when you are down. "£"

At least there are people here who understand.

Hi and welcome, I would suggest you talk to a union or the CAB regarding possible dismissal because of your sickness, there a lot of rules and regulations plus a strict set of procedures before your employers can go down that route.
