    And hence why some people have resorted to being an AE, the benefits board and discussion times are certainly not for the faint hearted!:p

    Again, with the benefits board, full of judgemental people, who aren't in real life and if they are, selective as to who they are judgemental too.

    They also won't reveal the real them, for fear of being judged themselves.

    I work with a guy who is a gay basher. What he doesn't realise, is that he's the most gay bloke I work with - camp voice, funny walk. As with most gay bashers, his fear is his own sexuality.

    Thanks you lovelies. I think I have learnt my lesson and will never venture into laxative use again - no matter how innocent my motives.

    Miroslav - I swear we've met but I have a brain like a sieve at the moment so just incase we haven't, I shall say hello. :)

    xx

    Just pop the remaining laxatives into a drink of someone you don't like. ;)

    We have met, but only briefly. I'm sure we shall cross paths here again, now that I have returned. :T

    I tend to let people in 'positions' walk all over me, because i'm worried if I get assertive/aggressive, they'll make life harder for me in other ways.


    I've not had to resort to punching anyone yet. Usually walking up to someone and telling them to behave is enough, or as more often is the case, those messing around see me and say in a higher pitched voice than normal 'alright mate' with a worried expression. I guess being tall, wide and mean looking has it's advantages, even though underneath i'm soft and love animals :rotfl:

    Just keep at it and hope you meet people who understand you :o
    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    I just have visions of you towering over people and scaring them - but inside you're all soft and fluffy! I always say I'm like a Jack Russell Terrier, little and cute whilst you're stroking me and being nice, but when people are horrible to me I bite! Maybe I'm just not biting enough, must get my teeth sharpened.................................:D
    KEEP CALM AND keep taking the tablets :cool2:

    It's just another case of people judging me because of what I look like I guess.

    Yes, it stops people being aggressive with me, so they try and use words and my lacking knowledge of the English language to defeat me.

    Yes, get those teeth sharpened and make sure you show them to people :rotfl:

    I'm off out now, so shall return later :j Wonder how I can cheer myself up today :confused:
  • Events last week have really set me back. I had been hoping to return to work next week but all I want to do is go to bed and shut the world out.
    It doesnt help that the weather is pants today and I cant get in the garden to plant out my plants.

    Been to see Dr today who has asked me to make an appointment in a weeks time. Spoke to ocupational health who have said it probably isnt a good idea to try and return to work whilst I am dealing with whats happened.

    Have been in touch with my friends from work and hoping to go and have lunch with them thurs/fri if my car is back from garage.

    Have tried to get in touch with some friends i used to play an online role playing game with but they havent replied to my text and I havent got their email addy. Need them now more than ever and I really regret losing touch. So if anyone knows of people who used to code on a mud called Elenia then please PM me!!!! lol. As if anyone here is likely to know them.

    Anni sorry you have had a rough few days by the sounds of things.

    :hello: Hi Miroslav - dont think we've met.

    :hello:Amber Sunshine hello and welcome back.

    KL.

    I heard Britney was going to make a comeback etc etc before she even did :rotfl: Always check the Britney news/magazines every day. She cancelled her last single and won't release anything until at least Christmas/New Year off a new album, which i'm sad about as the single she was going to release was one of the top 3 on the previous album and I was really looking forward to it being played everywhere :o Sadly for Britney, she will always be a comeback artist. Due to her 'illness', she'll keep on falling and need to be picked up and she surrouns herself with awful people who never have her interests at heart.

    I hope things pick up for me too :o

    I hope you get energy back soon. Does Summer drain your energy more?

    Is the company GP like an occupational therapist?

    Hope the hair straightening helped. Sometimes doing something for ourselves can make us feel a tiny bit better.

    Well as far as Britney goes...you will always know more than me!! lol
    I only know what I read in mags that Mam leaves me, so even then I;m a liyttle behind :)

    I don't know about the company GP as not seen him/her yet. But feel like this needs to happen sooner rather than later!! How busy can they be???

    Yes I did hope that it would help making an effort...but no :(
    Spent most of the day in tears. Eventually they tried to send me home. I declined.
    I then was taken off the phones and given other work to do for the rest of the day :(


    When will life get easier?????



    Septemberblues - big hugs to you, hope you are well x
