Wanna go home

Stomach bloated and feeling rejected, ignored. I have to sit in this office for 8hrs feeling empty and insignificant. I can't focus today feeling so low.

One step at a time... dissect the day into smaller chunks of time. Set goals for each portion of the day. Keep them simple. Smile to at least 3 people today. Do at least one kind act. Today will never happen again. Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. Make the most of it and have fun!...

These are just some ideas hopefully to help you get through your day.

I get off at 3:30, I'm on my break now. I want to cry so bad. Not sure what to put in my chunks of the day. I feel so unwanted.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I’m crying with you😢...I understand that feeling to well!! It hurts so much to feel unwanted!...But you ARE wanted! You are at work aren’t you? If someone is paying you, they are investing in you...they want you.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Sometimes people are really bad at showing it..and sometimes they do show it, but we can’t see it... you got this! You can do this!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Aww sorry I'm affecting u. I didn't want to do that

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

No! I’m crying FOR you! Not BECAUSE of you!

[Hidden]

I can definitely relate to how you are feeling. Its difficult to feel happy, when you are not being challenged at work and it seems as though you are being ignored or rejected. I look at this situation as if it was my own and how I dealt with it. 1st I try to think of positive things or people, 2nd I play a game on my phone, next I read a good book, or check out stories from this forum in Hope's that I can inspired another person today, last I always enjoy journaling about everything and every thought that comes across my mind. I noticed when its quiet at work and you have nothing to challenge you becomes boring and dreadful it allows lots of negative thoughts to enter your space and in my situation it allows me to eat everything that is unhealthy for me and later I feel bad.

I hope our day will go by quickly. I wish that I could work a half a day. No luck.

Let's just hang in there and your 3 o'clock will be here and my 5 o'clock will be here.

It will get better.

I try to find podcasts to listen to or YouTube meditation s

[TrueNorth in reply to Hidden]

Good response to feeling low/blue! You're taking positive action. I like listening to material by Marc Allen or Shakti Gawain. Also, take a cleansing breath break. Close your eyes, breathe deeply through your nose and imagine you're breathing in only good things. Now exhale through your mouth and imagine you are pushing all the bad things out. You are in control! Choose the good, focus on a goal.

[Hidden in reply to TrueNorth]

Aahh breathing techniques are relaxing

[teemo1 in reply to Hidden]

I do the journaling, too. It really helps. And I've just started writing fictional stories about it. Who knows, maybe someday I'll write something good and try to publish it!

[Hidden in reply to teemo1]

What do you journal about

[teemo1 in reply to Hidden]

As of now, I mostly just write about how I'm feeling at the moment (usually anxious), and why I think I'm feeling that way in relation to what's going on around me and in my head, etc. Sometimes I go off into what changes I think I need to make to gradually start feeling better in the future.

Music is always therapeutic. Something soft usually works.

Have a listen to Paul David. Anxiety no more or dr Claire Weekes on you tube and have a walk on your breaks.

Hope you feel better.

We all feel alone at times when anxiety shows it’s ugly head. I know I do too.

Do you have anyone at home to speak to when your home ? If not. We are all here for you. Put your fave song on and sing really loud! Helps me 😊 big hugs x

[Hidden in reply to Miss-P74]

I have a boyfriend who staying with me for a few weeks. But he has his own issues.

[Miss-P74 in reply to Hidden]

Then just focus on you. Have a lovely bath and relax. Call a mate for a chat? Sometime to take your mind off your feelings may help.

When I was working I always consoled myself with the thought that at least I was earning money. Then I thought of all the nice things I could do with the money. I only saw work as a means to an end to enable me to do things I enjoyed.

When I was feeling extra bad at work I would consciously try and make my mind a blank and just work on autopilot. This would work sometimes. x

[Hidden]

Omg this is torture.

[Hidden]

Thinking about you...how’s your day going? Feeling any differently?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

It's been rainy cold all day. My mindset is very dark right now. It's hard to work feeling so dejected.

[Hidden]

Headed home now, can be alone and not pretend
