Although anonymous being upfront with poor money management isnt easy.</P> <P>Many people with mental illness including anxiety have poor financial management so please dont feel guilty about this.</P> <P>Google</P> <P>Beyondblue Topic the financial world of snakes and ladders </P> <P>Ofyen the guilt associated with it all is worse than over spending </P> <P>Beyondblue Topic guilt the tormentor </P> <P>With work pag yourself on the back for giving this job a go. Not everyone can carry out a job beyond their capacity.</P> <P>I always advocaye getting 2 or 3 part time jobs for those with anxiety. That way you font slog it out with the same people for 8 hours and you also change your environment every 4 hours.</P> <P>BeyondblueTopic seeking work- some tips</P> <P>As well I wouldnt worry about getting work less than your capabilities especially part time work. An physical cleaning job gives your mind a rest. </P> <P>Stay clear of overnight shift work and customer service especially food where complaints are common and often not justified.</P> <P>In the meantime you can consider what you can do at work to relieve work stress.</P> <P>finally, we habe to look after our health. Visit your GP for a chat. Temporary treatment for anxiety might be a positive move.</P> <P>BeyondblueTopic anxiety, how I eliminated it </P> <P>All the best</P> <P>TonyWK </P> Thu, 18 Jul 2019 00:39:44 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/depression/running-out-of-option-in-life-and-work/m-p/475593#M40616 white knight 2019-07-18T00:39:44Z
