Depression

I have been feeling really depressed for the past two weeks. It has got really bad this week. I have been feeling isolated, angry with people. For the last ten years I have been in and out of work. When i have applied for a job i am forced to go through an agency. It is really depressing me so much. I have tried working long hours, been loyal to companies and even doing courses and nothing is working. I do not know what to do now. It is effecting every part of my life from my finances to my physical and mental health.

Hi Stephen,
Similar story here my friend.
Been in and out of 4 agency jobs since last year.
Challenging hours / shifts and often hard work.
At the moment I am signed off with chronic anxiety.
My plan is to keep applying online via jobsites with a view to a permanent role with fixed hours and a good work life balance.
I’m feeling your pain brother, it’s tough.
Stick with it and keep applying, something good is coming :slight_smile:

Peace :folded_hands:

first of all you need to accept
that you are suffering from depression it is very real
if you had broken your back nobody would question your capability
please understand it is the same if not worse than a physical ailment
i have been in similar situations forcing myself to work crying in staff toilets until i couldnt do it any longer be kind to yourself you are human not machine xx
