Learning to build a thick skin

Tomorrow is a new day and work will be the same … having to read more cases of abuse rape manslaughter and indecent exposure to kids. I think that was what has pushed me to anxiety today but I had to force a few smiles to actually feel any better. That’s what seems to work lately. The more happiness I project even if it is not real, it eventually becomes real.

Sounds like your job isn’t for the faint of heart. Hang in there, it is only temporary…

I remember X doing Jury Service. The things people do to one another left me in a state of disbelief. It took time to forget it and live a sense of normalcy again. Put a brave face on and go into automaton mode with the data while you’re there. But If you need time off…take it.
