I wrote on a envelope today that since o started doing this job I stopped thinking. I stopped dreaming and I stopped having hope. I've been depressed since one month in. I should have packed it in but my family insisted because it was healthcare I should stick at it. But I'm merely a shadow of the person I was before. All the nice qualities I had have been squashed and beaten out if me. And consequently I'm an emotional wreck that makes people think I'm bipolar. But I know I'm not like this when I'm away from work. Infact When I'm on holiday I'm just normal. Not eccentric. Normal. Does that sound bipolar?
Nope. Not bipolar...just not happy at work.Work that you hate can take a lot out of you. @Peppa

@MissMollyCharlotte0702 it's hard. I'm constantly watching what I say what I think. What I do. Hoping I'm stroking the ego of my boss enough but not too hard it seems false. Trying to do my job to the best of my abilities whilst taking constant criticism and sudden feedback that I need to do things another person's way other than my own or the way the dentist I'm working with likes. Making sure whatever comes out of my mouth doesn't seem stupid or weird. As I'll be judged and isolated.
The work world is tough. No one is your friend and you really can trust no one. @Peppa
