i am totally fucking up my job. i can't make myself get out of bed so i'm constantly calling in sick. i work as a supervisor in a group home so i always make my direct care shifts but skip any and all of my administrative work and meetings. due to the nature of my work i don't know if i should tell my boss that i'm suffering from severe depression and anxiety and work gives me panic attacks...i don't want her to think that i'm just lazy and don't care, but i don't want to be stigmatized because of what is really going on. i also don't know if they can fire me since i'm supposed to be helping developmentally disabled persons deal with their own mental illnesses. any advice?

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...

I told my employer and they didn't care nor did they try to help. I ended up having to leave and they never even offered any help. All this after almost a year there! And it was a Dr.s office!
