I've struggled with Depression since I was a teen. As an adult, I've gotten help for it during the worst bits. At the moment I'm in a fairly good place, and am off meds. But I still have the occasional day where I can't reign in it, and just come completely unglued. Today is that day.
After 30 minutes into my work day this morning, my boss got angry with me and sent me home, barking at me that she can't have me there if all I'm going to do is sit there and cry. Which, of course, only made it more difficult to stop crying and pull myself together. So I left.
This only happens to me maybe once or twice a year where I can't get it under control enough to get through my day at the office.
Those of you who battle Depression but also have to work for a living, how do you cope with these situations?
Thanks in advance.
