I have bipolar, so my emotions swing like mad anyway. i'm on meds to help level them out. I had a counselor that I was going to for about 2 years now. but she left the practice and I will need to find a new one I guess. I'm sure i'm going to need someone afterwards that I can talk to. Good news is that my boyfriend knows just how to snap me out of things when it gets bad. and he lives with me....God help him! LOL

Yeah, i'm nervous about it getting worse. and also wondering if I should just tell my team before I leave so that they know whats going on. that way they don't get too upset when I get back and i'm possibly an emotional wreck. my other idea was just letting it be and if i'm an emotion wreck afterwards then I can tell them on the day I get back. For now i'm leaving it be. i'll either tell them the friday i leave, or the day I get back.

and yes oneangelone I am leaning heavily on God. I don't pray alot and I don't go to church. but to me church is where ever you are, because it's in your heart that matters. I beleive God is carrying me thru this, like he has so many other situations in my life. It's the biggest reason i'm still sane. My life is a testimony to the grace and goodness of God.

TY for your responses everyone....HUGS

It's friday.....how did it go? I hope it went okay and you can still go for surgery! HUGS

I don't get that option. they make you go on medical leave (uses up all sick and vacation time) and then you go on STD. once i'm on STD I only get 75% of my normal pay....and that's only because i've been there over 15 years. most people only get 50%!!!
