At wit's end and don't want to work anymore

I'm tired of working. I feel overwhelmed. I'm 46, almost 47. I'm sick as a dog. I haven't been on meds since June of 2014.

Every single day is a nightmare. Nobody supports or helps me. My husband thinks I'm fine.

He's going to eat his words.

I'm going over to see a reverend over at the church where my husband works to see if I need to go to the hospital or what I need to do next.

My life is a joke. I'm tired of working. I'm tired of the rat race. I'm tired of everything.

That's it.

Big hug of comfort for you sweetie... Would you call your doctor today or if you need to go to emerg??

Vicky put up a post before to help people get meds at cheaper prices I'll put it up for you

If you're ill rap I would stand up to your husband... Sorry I'm not trying to be a shit disturber but this is just wrong

Your doc might be able to get you med samples as well.... I'm so sorry you're struggling...xo

Im 45 and ended up in that same place this past January and ultimately ended up in the hospital for 2 weeks, then had to apply for disability...I couldn't handle the stress of work anymore. I hope you can find a solution for you..I'm sorry your husband doesn't see your pain...hang in there. Big hugs.

We all have to work and being Bipolar does not stop us just makes it harder sometimes.

Personally, my work kept me together, working helps me utilise myself.

Things get hard when people you work for or with treat you differently in a significant and dismissive fashion.

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
