"I’m down today because I feel really unwell & I know what won’t be able to sleep properly tonight. I’m in a dead end job where no one cares about you. I’ll probably die at work because I have no future unless I get replaced by someone younger with less skills for less money. I own the clothes on my back, that’s it. Yeah so that’s why I’m down. Mr" Oh and I think I’ve got some kind dementia setting in because I can’t string a sentence together without getting it wrong. | |||

"Maybe see a Dr rather than waste your time on fab?" See a Dr? Chance would be a fine thing. | |||

"you have mrs though right? Yes I don’t want to worry her. " I know exactly what you mean. Often, we hide things because we don’t want to worry someone but you may be surprised at how much stronger she is than you think. Speak to her and you’ll likely find your burden shared will lift a huge weight off you. | |||
"If it's hard to get a new job have you thought of retraining? Maybe whilst in work?" I’m too old. | |||
"If it's hard to get a new job have you thought of retraining? Maybe whilst in work? I’m too old. " Do you feel too old? You are younger than me, and I'm re-training right now. In terms of options, things will be out there. Your predicament isn't uncommon at all, you've got to stay positive. pt | |||

"If it's hard to get a new job have you thought of retraining? Maybe whilst in work? I’m too old. " I changed career recently from teaching, the only thing I've known for years. I began to hate the system, the curriculum and could see through the rubbish as it doesnlt serve or realy help kids evolve. I took a giant leap of faith and changed job, I get slightly less pay but the benifits or great, I can get paid overtime for the hours over, rather then overwork for nothing, a better home life balance. It was a big gamble and I'm older the you. Sometimes in life, you have to risk to find change or life itself will just repeat. | |||
"Marking GCSE coursework and thinking "What the fuck am I doing , another weekend lost to marking"" One of the reason I got out and thank fuck I did. | |||
"you have mrs though right? Yes I don’t want to worry her. " Mate, don’t bottle these feelings up inside yourself, talk to you your wife, or even a counsellor or therapist. A problem shared is a problem halved. | |||

"I’m 52 and hate my job like loathe it, it pays the bills, I’m retraining to do a job I’ve always been fascinated with (computer animation) which I do in the evenings, I’m stealing my life back, taking it from the society that stole it, taking it back from the get up go work pay the bills get a mortgage and a nice car in the driveway mentality, when I’m doing the thing I love doing, I’m free and im a fucking delight, you should all try it, what is it that truly speaks to you, no matter how obscure it is, look at it and think I’m going to dedicate and hour a week then two hours then tell your mrs, you love her dearly and she’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you, hold her hand, rediscover what you are truly here for, come on mate you can do it xx" this^ | |||
