So just an update. I have been doing great since leaving my job at APS! If I could stress one thing is that you shouldn't kill yourself over a job because at the end of the day they really dont give a damn about you. I devoted 4 years of my life to that agency and made contributions. Most of the people I worked with didnt say bye. There was no going away gift/lunch that they usually do. Upper management never said bye either. It sucks because I worked very closely with these people and it's clear that I was nothing but a body filling a slot and taking cases. Anywho...since leaving my bp has been in the normal range. My depression is gone. I have started going out to eat inrestaurants, I went and got my hair done, and I haven't been apprehensive about leaving the house. I started my new job yesterday and i will have to admit I had a setback. Around lunch time I started panicking g and didnt remember if I took my bp medication or not. I instantly took it but then was fearful the rest of the day that I took double doses of my medication. I was so distracted the rest of the day and came home and was checking my bp constantly to make sure it wasnt too low. It's a new day and I'm fine. I cant let what happened yesterday affect today.

I’m sorry that leaving your old job happened in a way that felt awful & disrespectful.
But hearing how your symptoms have diminished since is inspiring!
It’s okay to have set backs. They don’t define everything.
I too sometimes forget if I’ve taken my daily BP meds.
