Hi LisaR

There are several herbal preparations that could help you with the way you feel - I tend to trust them rather than chemical meds, unless I have to take them.

I wouldn't worry too much about the possibility of getting laid off - you are more important than that. I don't know what age your children are, but if they're working age they could contribute more - if they're young, then you can get help with bills and a little extra from the Government too. there's nothing wrong with that at all - you need help and they can provide it. It's not as if you've been a sponger - far from it. So financial help is there if you find you need it - use it, don't be afraid to.

When the time comes that you can rejoin the workforce, (if you do find that you get laid off) perhaps do something different than you work at, at present, because once you're feeling well (and YOU WILL) a new start in your work life might just be the ticket.

I wish you the very best- and on a website full of women, know right here and now that you are NOT the only one feeling like this, believe me!
