Default Complete lack of ambition anyone???

Ugh, I feel horrible. I lost my job due to rupturing cysts and them not knowing what was wrong with me. So My dr wrote them a diagnosis, and medical absenses all the time, and because they are a casino and they are indians, (which I am a very small part indian) they don't have to follow state laws in terms of letting people go for medical absence. So yeah, now i am getting married in three weeks, I was working a temp job, but am not working now, and I just have no ambition to do anything! I mean i don't need to get a job before the wedding, but i should be getting the house ready for guests and trying to organize all the stuff my fiance moves in and I have no energy or ambition to do ANYTHING. I just want to wallow. I was diagnosed in Feb. So it is still new, and with the symptoms of excess hair making me feel less and less like a woman, and being overweight and of course when the dr puts you on hormones, you end up getting EVEN BIGGER BOOBS, so it just feel like a mess of everything. Anyone have any advice????
Kris

Hi Credo

Congratulations on your wedding! You have a whole new life that's about to start now. That's the important thing. I've learned that the people who love and care about you in life are much more important than the people at work you don't care if you drop dead. My PCOS symptoms, primarily fatigue and depression, have caused me to have some bad job evaluations, but I don't miss the insensitive bastards I used to work for. Don't worry, you'll find something much better.

Take care and congrats again

Hi, congrats on the wedding. I'm sure it will be beautiful! You are in an incredibly exciting, anxious time though. And, I sure can understand why you might be tired. What an overwhelming life change you are about to make! Plus, your job loss doesn't help with the stress any. Are you taking anything to help you cope? It sounds like you could be dealing with some depression. If you are interested in herbal help, you might try sam-e or St. John's Wort. Both are herbal and are suppose to help. You should visit with your Dr. though before starting either of them and you cannot take them if you are already on an anti-depressant. You might need a little lift to help you get through all these life's changes that are happening. Good luck. Take care of yourself and enjoy your time as a bride. Lendi

I know exactly how you feel. Its kind of weird because I was just telling my Dh this. I have absolutely no ambition at all. I finally got the nerve to go back to school but I have no idea where I am headed. I wanted to do something in the business field so I am taking classes along that line. Maybe by the time I get a few semesters of my basics in, I will have my mind made up. I not only have no ambition about this but almost everything. One minute I have myself so built up about exercising and then the next minute, I cant seem to do it. I stay depressed all the time. Even the fact about being depressed, depresses me. I know I havent given you any advice but I hope you realize that you are not alone.

It's good to know that I am not alone, but maybe we can help to motivate each other. with some sort of status report or something. I need to get out of this funk i am in, no job, no money coming in, no idea what i even want to do for school! it's crazy....and mike gets really bothered by it.

Hey, if you guys figure out how to get out of the funk, please share it with me!!

Although I've missed some work for being sick (most times I just couldn't get out of bed to come in), I work for a pretty understanding bunch. I've been told about my sick days, but haven't been reprimanded. The hard part of my job is there are days when I just want everyone to leave me alone-every little thing people do gets on my nerves and I just want to scream at them all.

The problems come after work. I can't get motivated to do anything once I get home. If I do chores the instant I get home, like the dishes, fix dinner, vacuum, I'm okay, but if I sit down to watch tv, that's the end. It takes everything I have to get up off of the couch.

You are most certainly not alone!

When I get severely down becuz of my BiPolar I can't seem to do anything but sleep!

When I'm up I am WAY up and I am always on th go. But it can't really seem to do much if I am sitting on the couch ... I've become very lazy since I lost my good paying job and I find it hard to get up and go for anything.

Good Luck to you!
