    Hi and welcome to DWD!
    Sweetheart it sounds like you're dealing with a huge amount which is emotional and really tough especially if you can't talk things over.
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    I've always been a coper I raised my boys by myself and until last year was fine. Work suddenly got very busy and I just couldn't cope. I was given antidepressants by my gp but like a fool didn't take them thinking I'd pull myself together.
    I have tried all the usual things going out. I teach salsa and go dancing twice a week for fun but I go on my own spend most of my time there on my own and leave alone. I don't seem to be able to make friends partly due to my childhood. We moved around a bit so making friends was really a waste of time. So I just have people I know
    I work in this field and advise people all the time which is why I don't get how I got myself in this situation

    Have you been back to your doctor?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I prefer to see it as taking the first step to recovery. To getting back control

    Yes that's what I'd tell my clients. I'm worried that if I go back it'll be on my medical records and impact my job prospects should I lose this job
