I have multiple health issues but more so mental health issues. I have hashimotos autoimmune disorder so I’m ALWAYS getting sick and missing work which I found out yesterday having to leave that people are “talking about me” because of it. My boss and HR know I’m sick but it’s about once a week I find myself having to leave.

My mental health is from severe trauma. PTSD, Bipolar 2, Depression and social anxiety. It’s gotten to where I can’t work as I should because I’m having emotional or mental breakdowns. Of course I excuse myself and hide when they happen but it takes me away.

My fiancé wants me to do what’s best for me and get help. I’m starting the process next week. I also have a phone interview for disability Thursday due to the intensity of everything combine.

I’m 25. I want to be successful for the first time in my life but it’s hard. I’ve neglected myself and my mental health for a very long time. It’s all catching up to me.

My fiancé said as long as I get disability or can work part time to help us we’ll be fine. But he also said, if I feel I should not work while there is a 75% chance I’ll be put on meds to help me, that he will be ok with that too and just wants me better.

Everyone says I’m a great mom. My daughter is my life. And I have days where I don’t want to bring her to school and go to work because I wake up so depressed and she’s the one thing that helps me stay calm and try to fight my brain 😢

I just want to be a successful mom. I want to keep an employer for more than a year. I want a career / profession. But I mentally struggle and it’s not fair. I never asked to be mentally and physically abused from ages 5 - 16. I didn’t ask to be sexually assaulted numerous times at 13 and removed from my home because i was too scared to go to school.

And I didn’t ask to feel like I shouldn’t be here.
