I can’t take much more of this. Today was terrible. My boss has me working with another person all this week to lighten my stress, but it’s not going as he intended. The person I worked with today had me doing pretty much all of the work, barely helping at all, not even going with me on my runs. Maybe she thought she was supposed to be training me, even though I said otherwise at the outset this morning. I hope I get to work with someone nicer tomorrow, maybe someone who can see or at least understand that I’m drowning in stress right now. I should be able to handle this and do this job, but I simply cannot.

Do you think if you hang in there things will become more automatic and easier?
No, I really don’t. This job would only get worse if I stick with it and have to learn the more demanding positions. I cannot do it much longer.

Do you think it is possible for you to get on disability until you figure out what to do?

Here in the U.S. it takes years to get disability.
I’m sorry.
I hope things get better for you.

I am sorry… Hope you figure things out soon 
If you hire a disability lawyer, you can get ssdi within a reasonable time.
I’m sorry, I don’t mean to pester you/or hijack your thread.
Hope that info helps.
Thanks, but the initial decision on my application would take about three months, and I cannot afford to go even one week without working. I have no one to support me.

Can you get your old job back ?
I could teach again, but not until January. As far as the pharmacy I used to work at, I doubt I could get 40 hours per week, and even that many hours is not enough to live on for the wage they were paying me.

I’m feeling a little bit better after seven hours of sleep, just hope today goes much better than yesterday did. I just really hope I’m working with someone better today, someone I can talk to about why things are being done this way, with me working with a partner all day every day. Someone who will understand that I cannot do all of the work alone, even though I probably should be able to do so.
All I can say to you is to try to sleep very early to get enough sleep and energy, eat healthy, exercise helps also, try to relax in the evening don’t do anything stressful.
I really hope everything is going to be all right soon for you! @freakonaleash! 
Also don’t be too much demanding on yourself. Accept what you can do in your job and the fact that you can’t do the impossible!
I hope you will have soon a nice partner!
