How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Sad, anxious and shaky. I was feeling OK until I was made aware someone has taken offence at things I said in a work email. I was doing my best to help and always try my best but sometimes that's not good enough. I was feeling tired and anxious enough lately already, this feels like a nail in my coffin right now. I'm trying to respond calmly and diplomatically but it's really hard you may have made a mistake you can't change. I feel sick to my stomach and just spent my last call barely saying anything in case I said something wrong, which is crazy as I know 99.9999% of my work is fine but something like this just breaks all that confidence into little pieces. I might need to take an emergency dose of diazepam otherwise I may not make it through the day. FFS life feels like torture sometimes 😥☹️🤐

Sorry that you're going through this AvidFan. I hope it blows over and quickly. Also that your anxiety and sadness lessens. If your work is fine the majority of the time I'd try to keep that in focus. The problem may lie within the person reading the email not you at all. *consolehope you feel better all around.
 
Kinda worried to be honest. My sister called at 3:30 in the morning, insisting someone come and pick her up. She was irate and not making much sense. She got kicked out of the maternity ward for some reason and couldn't come back. My nephew is with her now, but there's also a mental health person there with them. Hopefully she will go back on meds and everything will be ok.
I hope your sister and her baby are okay. *hug

Sorry to hear it. Email is so easy to misinterpret. Take the diazepam if you need to - that's what it's for. Everyone makes mistakes. *console
