I need help so badly. Im a youth worker and i work voluntarily and have a paid job. My unpaid job line managers have said im too sick too work now and untill im better i have to give up all the work i do everything has to go. My work is what gets me up in the morning and what i fight for everyday. with out my work life seems pointless. Now i dont no what i should do about my paid job should i tell them and risk loosing everything or just keep quiet and keep going? i feel like im coping and really makes me feel better being at work. It feels like everything ive worked so hard to achieve is being stripped away from me slowly so i feel it more painfully. why is this happening to me. what am i to do??? Please help me.

On the other hand, I understand what it feels like to risk losing your job, because I am in the same place...I'm getting sicker and I may have to make the decision to go back to the hospital because I am using my ed as a possible passive suicide. I don't want to lose my job because we need the money, yet I want to get the help I need.
For these reasons....I get where you are coming from. I do hope that you will choose treatment though...you need to save your life...you won't be working with children if your dead...
