I have just found out that I did not get the promotion at work... It was all organised and my roster had changed then for no reason I was told it was off.
My boss and my boss's boss were supportive of me. But for some reason I have pissed the big boss off and he stopped it and said I did not have the ability to do it and I had to prove it to him. I work in the polcie which is semi - military and they do not have to explain the reasons. Just NO. I don't want you there. And here I am over it all and just sick of trying so hard to get deal with my depression and try and do my best at work ...Then he just doesn't want me there .... I have been told I am good at my job etc but just becasue he does not like me he can stop my career. BUt cover it up in such a way that you can't do anything.
I though I had finally been given an opportunity as I have been screwed for so many other positions/opportunities before//.
I just feel hopless and want to give up. I can't stop crying. The only thing stopping me fron taking all my sleeping pills is I don't know if 54 tablets is enough to end it all. I have searched on the internet to find the number I need and what will happen to me if it doesn't work and I wake up. I could be a vegetable and that is th eonly thing stopping me.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
It's seems the big boss is a total prick, but that is no excuse to end your life (actually I'm not sure there is an excuse)
I'm sure you have plenty to live for, and are good at you job as 2 of your superiors think you should be promoted.
Don't let this setback get you down, use it as inspiration to prove to big boss that he/she was wrong to say no, and to make sure the next promotion is yours for sure!
So whcih ever way you go you are screwed. If you don't tow the line you are an outsider and your collegues will not back you at bad dangerous jobs.
I wish there was recourse but there is nothing..... I can't go to his boss without going to him first..... it is just shit.
Thank you for caring
I know that is my only option to get out of his control and area. As he has it in for me. I susspecet it but it has been confirmed to day that he just does not want me in his area....
I am just so tired and confused and sad I am all oVER TH EPALCE.
i AM fighting my depression and just don't feel I have enough fight in me to "fight" him or try ....
I amon night shift and I think that is making me worst as I cannot sleep and am just so tired and upset. Kepp going spoony and crying.
this has really effected me..
The big boss could leave, die, change his opinion. You could get another job. You could decide look at your current predicament differently.
You do not require a promotion in order to stay alive. You were looking for a job when you found that one, right?
Your life is worth much more than your current set of circumstances. Keep writing here about how you feel and perhaps it will all sort itself out for you.
