Hey Tammy, welcome to Bluelight.

Hows your relationship with your doctor? Are you making good progress?

You should try and keep your chin up, things can always be worse! I suppose a holiday is out of the question, so try and find as much "me time" as you can. Try meditation, breathing techniques or even one of those squeezy stress balls to help you unwind. Every second spent unwinding is a second not spent angry. Even massages to help get those knots out of your muscles can be extremely therapeutic and if you have a friend or relative that you feel comfortable with, it won't even cost you a cent!

Good on you for sticking with your job, many of us have more stressful jobs than others and by the sounds of it you are tolerating it well considering all the things that are going on in your life. Just don't go around shooting anyone, that is bad. ;) I'm sure that your doctor has your best intentions in mind, but with the current medication you have to take it seems like its an intense mix. I'm not a medical professional, but if you don't think that your current medication is working you should definitely bring it up with them. All I can say is that if you need someone to vent to instead of shooting someone, feel free to PM me anytime. :)
