Well done, Melly.

Ps...only saw your 'penguin' after I quoted you....might be better to penguin it?


Oops! See now it was an edit not a penguin!

Pyx, JB, Moo - thank you!


I did think about asking for the details of what those recruitment agency fees would be, but then I thought "hold on a minute, no way, it's their choice to recruit that way" and I have never heard of a company trying to pass on recruitment agency fees to the employee.


I could always try the one day from home thing I suppose.......Yes, that could work asz it would mean one less day I need to worry about getting sleep and getting up and out on time etc, but considering one of my main reasons for going back to work was for the contact with people........ does that negate the purpose? I suppose not as my other reason is to earn money. However, it's unlikely to be possible - it's a consultant role, so 99% of time requires visits to client premises (hence the huge travelling involved)

Melly penguin response

Well done for admitting it melly and agreeing you need help. Could you call the ED helpline
01494 793223 or email support@eatingdisorderssupport.co.uk ?

Or there's anorexia and bulimia care (abc) on 03000 111213.

Not trying to palm you off on others but recovery is a difficult thing and you'll need a support network (us + specialists). My ED is very different to yours so my coping mechanisms probably won't help.

Have you eaten anything today?


End penguin

Monday speak to some other agencies and get a feel for the market.
When you supposed to start?

mellymoo74

Melly,

I have to agree with the others its a very brave thing for you to admit to.

Its the first step forward to admit that you have a problem. It may not be nice or comfortable. But you have done it.

Here is a massive duvet hug for you.

Yours

Calley

tea - yes please, much appreciated.
HBS - thank you - and I am loving the HP questions - keep them coming! I have a "book lovers trivial pursuits" but I have no one to play it with! Maybe I should ask the questions here instead.


JB - that is one of the problems with the Uni - 4 months in and I still haven't been told who my personal tutor is.......the admin and communication is terrible. I have spoken to the head of the program after a terrible mark on an assignment and the meeting did not install much confidence.

Moo - well done honey. Guess today is the day for admitting we have problems........you've done great.xx
