Definitely not a failure. This job is a lot of bullshit. Sorry about your loss. Prayers.

You're not a failure. We all feel like that from time to time. Find someone you trust and process your feelings about your grandma's death. Take up a hobby, running/working out helps me when I'm feeling depressed. Sometimes a lazy Netflix binge day is necessary too. Don't be so hard on yourself 🤗

Hello! Have you tried different medications? And are you only taking medication or are you also speaking to a psychologist simultaneously? That is helpful also. Push through it. You can do it. Have you talked to anyone?

I'm sorry actually I don't think it's free but I think it is helpful

Yes I’m talking to someone.. and just changed my meds.. i think it’s also the fact i lost my grandma a day after Christmas last year and never dealt with it and now it’s hitting me all at once.. i don’t want to hurt myself . And being yelled and cursed at at work isn’t worth it either .. thankfully i have supportive parents who are okay with helping me while i work on my mental health & diabetic health also. Just sucks kinda feel like a failure for not being able to juggle it all

Get out of the toxic environment also. There are jobs doing the same thing where you don’t have to deal with that

Thanks for all the advise!! Just did 3 days in the hospital .. my stress is causing my body to shut down slowly

I think as far as the work and being yelled, but you need to teach people how to treat you. If they yell say hey what's the problem here? I used to be so nice and got taken advantage of. Manager wrote email to me in all caps I said I will do what you asked but there's a better way to message what you are trying to say and he said I'm so sorry I didn't mean to which was BS but he didn't address me in that manner anymore! Don't let them do that shit! It's rude!!

I am so sorry you are going through this. My daughter has been hospitalized 3 times for similar items. She fights everyday to hang on. She is 15. No one knows how hard it is for you. Keep fighting. As far as the screaming in your office, get out now. It is toxic to you.
