Hi, im new here and got a question. I have been working as a chef in a pub but it has been making me ill-i feel physically sick, anxious and have a stomach ache when i think of going into work. I have felt like this for the past 2 weeks so i have quit the job. Was this a good decision? I am hoping I will find a new job very soon (i have enough money for the next month).
Should i of stayed there, even though it made me feel ill and depressed? what do i do if i cannot find a new job?
Thank you in advance.

Life is too short to be unhappy xxx

I think possibly it might have been better to have seen your doctor and gone off sick but I've worked in paces that have me ill like that and its definitely better not to work in an environment that makes you ill.

thank you-thats what i think too! :)
have been off prozac for a year and i am not going back on it for anyone...least of all a rubbish job!

I agree life is to short to be working somewhere that makes you feel this way. S x x x x

i am worried about what to do now-im worried about the bills, rent...i feel i have to deal with my obligations and cannot afford to fall apart and be depressed...i feel i need to be strong but i feel weak...and guilty...
hope this makes sense..

-
thank goodness! i have always felt guilty about my depression, felt it made me weak somehow and felt guilty...
tomorrow i shall look for another job and all will be well i hope...i just couldnt stay there-it was making me unhappy...i feel i made the right choice...but i am worried about paying the rent etc...

Try to take one day at a time if you can xx
-
thats what i try my best to do..but some days i feel overwhelmed...the important thing is to acept this and not feel guilty about it..

Its difficult to accept and not feel guilty but as you say its what you need to try to do. Taking one day at a time is a humungous task but try to think of the times you've agonised of something that might happen and it didnt, thats howI tackle it.
