Screwed up at work. I am feeling like the biggest failure as a person.

[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 572989, member: 2196"] Thanks for the support, ladies. Doing a little bit better today. I figured out that if I reduce my caffeine intake it helps to lesson my anxiety so that's something good. And about the bipolar support group, well the head admin found out the other admins ganged up on me and sent me that email. She was ****ed. She told the other admins off for it, and then went ahead and told me I can post whatever I wish, negative or otherwise. I'm glad the lady in charge had my back and stood up to the other ones. I really felt unfairly singled out. There's people on there who talk about their desire to cut themselves, one girl actually attempted suicide and we all had to talk her into checking herself into the hospital. Others say they are so depressed they don't want to go on living. Total triggers but they post them anyway and nobody singles them out like they did me. I am glad I still have the group. Most of the people on there are very supportive and they are going through anxiety issues themselves (makes me think there is a strong link between bipolar and anxiety issues) and they backed me up too, stating that I can post about my anxiety all I want to because I have every right. After all, it is a bipolar support group and that's what we are all there for. To help each other through the rough times. So I got that all straightened out. And my new therapist rocks. He seems to really get me. He has all kinds of anti-anxiety techniques he is going to show me. Plus just having someone there to unload on really helps. I haven't had therapy in over a year and I really did miss it. Only bad thing is I can't afford to see him more than twice a month. He really thinks I need to see him weekly but I told him that's just not possible. So that's a downside but at least I have him there part time. And today is my psychiatrist appointment. I am hoping he can do something with this depression. I am thinking something along the lines of a mood stabilizer. We shall see. After psychiatrist is the dreaded meeting with difficult child.
