All the insecurities stemming from 20 years in an abusive marriage..two years out and damm, the criticism and belittling still affects me and my ability to make decisions or try something new without being so worried I will fail. |

Confidence, self esteem, anxiety and self consciousness are holding me back from where I would like to be in life.
Over the past few years I have trying my best to become a better person and feel like I have come along way compared to how I used to be. I feel like the next step is changing my current position and where I am in life. |

Everyone fails sometimes. Getting out after so many years proves you are strong.  |

Self belief, fear of failure, finances.
Daft as it may sound I'd worry about the staff I left behind if I left my job. I'm a mother figure, best friend, agony aunt to most. I'm a mentor and I don't even realise it half the time. Without me there picking up the pieces and supporting and believing in them I know it would be a far less pleasant place for them to work. When the time is right I'll move on.

I did 22 years. I’d say it took me about 4 years to lose his voice in my head.
Things will get better |

"Right now, my job. Every time I make a little progress my horrible manager does or says something to make me feel like shit and bring me back down."

Too many emotional scars, which until recently I thought I'd dealt with.
A few events have reopened old wounds & taken me back to somewhere I didn't want to go.
But as a good friend reminded me earlier.
I climbed out of that hole once before.
I can, and will do it again.

Drinking teas from my hello kitty mug just doesn’t seem as good anymore. Where do we purchase _inky-minx mugs?
They cannot be purchased, they must be earned  "
When do I report for work? |
