OT--Prayers please

Hello, my Bama Family,

I come to you because I need your prayers.  There have some things going on in my life, my job status is the biggest thing.  I am so depressed and I am going to see PCP today if I can get in.  I know God is going to take care of me and my family.  We are under great financial stress (I know everyone is now adays.)  I have to leave my job because of the cir****tances I can't go on working wear I am now.  I did change jobs back July and that was a mistake.  I know God will only give you what you can handle, but I am having a tough time handling this situation.  I just have to figure out when is the right time to turn in my notice.  I don't want to disappoint my boss, but I have to think about me and how me being depressed all the time is making me withdraw from my family.  I thought I was a stronger than this.  I will find another job, but I know it won't be anything like what I am making now.  Frank, my husband, is so supportive of me and just wants me to be happy.  He said we will get through it.  He tells me I am more important than the bills.  He just wants his wife back.  Please know this has nothing to do with having gastric bypass surgery.  I would do that over again in a heartbeat.  I just some prayers right now.  I do believe that if it wasn't for the surgery I would be sitting here eating and eating and eating, but I do believe the surgery saved my life.  God gave me this tool and I don't want to disappoint him.  Thank you my friends!! And if you hear of any job openings let me know.  I still have my boys here at home, so I have to think of them first. 

Love to all and I miss you all!!!

Linda...you are in my prayers.  I wish you were closer because there are 2 attorneys in the town I work in that need assistants.  I am praying that God will send the perfect job your way. 

Thank you Carmen.  Frank already works 45 minutes away.  Only job he could find.  I really miss being here on the board.

Linda, bless your heart. Depression is such an ugly enemy. It steals so many things from us. My heart goes out to you and I will definitely be adding you to my prayer list. Anytime you need to vent or even whine (and yes I'm a believer in whining at certain times)...you just send me a PM and I'll get down on my knees and call your name out loud. You have to take care of yourself sweetie. Jobs and money are necessary but your health and happiness are more important right now. We have missed you around here and if you're like me, you probably pull away when you need us the most. Please don't do that. We love you, you hear me? We really love you!!!! I'm wrapping my arms around you right now and whispering your name in prayer and if I need to I'll get louder but God hears even the softest whisper.

Love and prayers,
DebbieDoo

Thank you so much Debbie.  I am sitting here crying and for what??? I don't know.  This depression has gotten a hold of me and I don't know how to stop it.  I consider myself a strong person.  I have been through a lot  in my lifetime, but for some reason I just can't get a grip on it.  What is wrong with me?  I called my PCP and I am seeing him at 9am in the morning.  Frank is going with me.  I am so thankful to have such a wonderful husband.  I am also thankful to have such wonderful friends.  Thank you so much!!!

Linda, all I can say about the depresion I've been through in the past is that once it gets a hold of you its a hard thing to get rid of but not impossible. Your emotions are very raw right now and you're gonna cry sometimes for no reason at all. I'm so glad you are going to see your PCP. You tell him exactly what you're going through and see if he can do anything. I'm praying.
