My heart is aching reading this… sending you so much love ❤️
What have you tried in terms of addressing the issue?
What self-care routines do you have incorporated into your day, if any at all?
Some ideas:
A relaxing bath before going to sleep
Mindfulness meditation (focusing on sensations in your body, grounding yourself)
Dance breaks — you can even do them at work (if you go into an office) in the bathroom or wherever (put on some really fun music that gets you going & let yourself go loose for like 5 min)
If you need to release anger, sadness, whatever, do that (a pillow fight with bed might help as long as you don’t startle loved ones) — releasing/moving negative emotions through your body helps, especially if you end it up with a more loving/sensual movement (moving to a beautiful song that makes you feel serene/sexy/whatever is pleasing for you)
Standing in a power pose with arms stretched high to the sky, face up to the sky, also does wonders — you can also do it in a bathroom at work when feeling down
Affirmations
…
As long as you keep yourself away from negative thoughts about the current situation, you might be able to have a calm/positive state of mind to look for a new opportunity that will objectively be a step up from the current situation.
Wishing you all the best & sending lots of love ❤️
Take a sick day to pause and breathe, maybe this Friday so it can be a long weekend over 4th of July and you’ve had time to rest and recuperate. I’d recommend seeing a therapist to help you manage these stressors.
I agree completely. I think a lot of people view therapy as an additional task they have to complete, but once I started working with my therapist I found I have someone I can vent to and confide in (about my belief systems and past experiences). She’s given me lots of useful tools to use as well as helping me shift how I talk to myself when I’m going through hard times. If you have an EAP program I would recommend checking it out!

Are u at a company that offers paid FMLA? Bc I was at a big org a few years ago, got a new manager abruptly… CRAZY stress and micromanaging hostile work environment so went to my PCP and got FMLA paperwork for intermittent leave 2 days a month. The company offered a paid leave bank that I could tap into for that. SO worth the trouble!!!!!!!
