Hey guys new here so give me a chance to spit this all out. I have had depression and anxiety for years now and I usually manage okay but not lately. I am a manager at a place I rather not name and it makes me feel like shit! I apply for work daily and am getting no where. When at work I actually hide and cry in the office sometimes. The place of killing me but if I leave without another job I will not be able to support myself. I just don't know what to do? I have tried everything to be positive I try telling myself it's not forever but I wake up the days I have work feeling so sick. I do to bed after work and cry. Any tips?

Hi Lost n confused.
It's awful being in a job you feel you are trapped in. Do you have any holidays owing to you? If so perhaps you could take one annual leave day a week for a few weeks and make that the day you apply for other jobs - just so you're not having to think about it all the time.
Sometimes setting up rewards for myself for getting through the week can help. But I do understand when you have depression it often takes away being able to look forward to anything.
