Depression Understood Forums

its just hard to stop thinking about it though



you could do some online maths training if it worries you too much? part of assessment i had used maths with percentages and stuff which i hadnt touched on in years so i did some online work for that to get up to speed with it

I failed the assessment, i missed a page out in the math side of it so failed that. just waiting on feedback for the rest but im a bit disappointing i made such a silly mistake, especially when i have to wait 6 month before i can apply again and probs another year before theyre hiring again. Feeling...

i still am lorry driving, i meant i took time off as in i had a week off from work. booked a holiday week but i didnt actually go on holiday ha.

Im from yorkshire.

I just dont think i like lorry driving ha, the job i have now pays good so its not about the money.

Where abouts in the UK are you from?

Ye i hate my job aha. it pays well but i realise money isnt everything and it just stresses me out. i want to do something with my degree (law) so just looking around really but having no luck, which is also part of reason im feeling low to be fair. my current job doesnt know im looking i dont think...

I know not caring is a symptom of depression, but what about not feeling remorse? I've been called heartless even before I was diagnosed with depression l, but recently I'm just not feeling anything. Not sure if it's just me or the depression. I know I shouldn't blame the depression, but at this po...

Dear "I am Lost", I’m so sorry about all you’ve been through and that you’re hurting so much right now.... Thank you ,I meet with the counselor on Tuesday a bit nervous but it's the only help I have access to at the moment I reached out for help last week and went to the doctors, im start...

nah i dont like my job aha. I did at first but theyre putting to much on me now (and to be fair too much on the other drivers too). I did law at university so im wanting to get into criminal justice so the police was like an ideal job for me! i guess im just going to keep looking around and stuff. A...

How are you today ?

Thats good news then! youre getting praised :) so its looking good ha Im currently a lorry driver yeah, its multi drop so can do like 15 drops or more in a day and we empty to truck by hand pretty much so its a bit harder than just driving a truck long distance (some people assume im just on my bum ...

Maybe shop floor might be better for you? i preferred the floor to the checkouts 100% to be fair. had freedom to move around and stuff and the money responsibility wasnt there. When i worked in retail i was basically doing a managers job running round for everyone but i wasnt officially a manager, i...

Reviews are good though, its your chance to tell them your concerns. if its a good company thats point when they should take things on board and do stuff to help where you are struggling! I wasnt a manager in retail, i worked in retail for 7 year then after i graduated i needed a change (and was soo...

I hear you about the family issues. My parents split when i was younger and i was left with my mother and step father who was quite abusive. i I also got belittled by them constantly and this did greatly affect my self esteem for a long time and probably does to this day. Im still a bit scarred by t...
