Hmm… wat are you stressed about?

I work in retail, and I’m in the middle of possibly being promoted but I might not so I’m under constant observation but during the most stressful and busy time of the year. The only person I want near me just now have just moved 600 miles away. My house is a mess because I was working 14 hour shifts last week and couldn’t clean the house. And I don’t know how long I have left living in my house before they evict me because the owner wants to refurbish the house and rent it to someone else, and I don’t earn enough to live anywhere else.

I’m tired so it’s making dealing with all this so much harder…

I can understand how u feel. With all ur work and stuff. Do you need this promotion?

Yes, because because with my current work experience I’m not qualified to do anything. If I get this promotion it opens so many other job opportunities for me. It’s also more money. I can move in with my partner, the person who moved 600 miles away, and it would be so much cheaper to live and I would have a home, but I’ve applied for jobs in the area but I can’t even get an interview because I don’t have any qualifications or relevant experience. I’ve just enrolled in a course which will give me more experience and a qualification but it’s hard to stay focused and positive, and moving 600 miles means I move over a border, which means I wouldn’t be able to do my course anymore either. I just need a break, but I can’t get one. I’m so tired of constant worry and anxiety, and I finally got an appointment with a councillor but they keep cancelling on me because the person is off sick, or not available, and have been doing this to me for nearly 2 months.
