....just got up out of a very clamy bed. I've been lying awake for 2 hours thinking of nothing but this bloody job I have to go to in half an hour. Waves of panic rolling over me. I'm so tired I just cant think straight. God I hate this job.

Changing jobs isn't that easy round here. At the moment it's a case of sufering the job or unemployment, which would mean I couldn't pay the mortgage and eventualy lose my home. I work in a management coach in a factory. Very opressive place and I'm surrounded by hostility all day long. I left a great job I had been doing for 23 years because I thought I needed a challenge. Why oh why! Idiot!

Shad, have you given any thought to starting your own business? Maybe find something simple you could do in a little spare time from home, build from that. Hate to see anyone feeling trapped.

I'm so sorry. Any chance you can get your other job back?

Oh, bad environment. Don't let it break you... is what i'd like to say, but i know what you mean. And unemployment isn't an option. Anything you can do to improve the hostility factor?

Theres a chance I may be able to get my old job back. I had to eat humble pie and ask my old boss if I could come back. He's said theres a posibility but not for another 6 months (when a position will become available). So I have to suffer tis for six months. There's also the posibility that they don't give me the job at my old place. In which case I'm stuck here. I have seriously though about just jacking it all in. If i carry on like this it will make me ill. I haven't had more than 4 hours sleep for about 2 months now

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...
