I haven't called yet. Basically they refer you to a social worker. The problem is that I think I may be too far gone. Everyday since 2/11 I have had a severe emotional breakdown. I cannot function, sleep, workout, go to work and when I am at work I leave in the middle of the day (this happened 4 times in 2 weeks). Today was really bad and I wasn't coming in at all...it didn't go over well so I forced myself to come in. My bf gave me 2 Ativan's to get me out of my basket case hysterical state. He took 4. They are his pills so it's not like I can just take them anyway.
I can't function like this. I can't handle it. I have never been such an emotional mess. I don't know what to do. I can't lose my job over this but I can't get myself together enough to work. I break down constantly and I have never been like this. I am sitting here at my desk just staring into space.
This is not what I want to feel like and I know if this continues I will end up in the hospital or worse. I feel it. It's overwhelming.
