Desperate need of support

Posted by Leah on May 18, 2001 at 09:46:56:

hey all. I am doing my best to get to the doc, and see a specialist. But my doc will not be back in town until next week, and I have to have a refural to see a specialist, for insurance.

I really really need some support. I am getting so frustrated, and discouraged. My family is not being very supprotive at all. Infact my mother is down right angry. My friends are all busy with thier own lives.

I am young (22) and I have a very physically demandig job (custodian) I get to work, and I feel like a bowl of jelly. I feel so weak! I feel like I am going to collaps any minuet. I feel like if I can't lay down for just a minuet I will just die!

I am ready to just give up. Throw in the towl, and I will not lie....feeling a little sucicidal. I can't take this anymore. I will just die if I lose my job, its all I have right now. I can NOT stay awake for the LIFE of me! How long will it take? How long until I start getting complants on my work? How long until I am late one to many times? How long until I get caught sleeping? How long will it take until I am fired? How long until somthing terrible happens while Im driving?(Im so afraid of hurting someone.)

Oh please, I need some support. I can not go on much longer.
