I used to think if you didn't have a job you'd hardly have any stress, but there are plenty of other causes.<BR/>Last year I had months of regular long trips to visit my grandma in various hospitals where she didn't ever want me to go. I also lost my dole for 6 months and literally worked full time before I got it back. I earned nothing for 6 months and shat myself. Then the germs get in and I caught some real nasties which was the final nail in the coffin.<BR/>The clients are for psychotherapy. Though it's not a recognised profession here I'm as qualified as you can get professionally, but not many paid jobs and have a few clients a week which sometimes covers my expenses such as membership and insurance. No actual profit there. So being confidential I can't say any more about work here so it's vague.<BR/><BR/>Having nothing to take over any of the dreadful day to day jobs when I'm not up to it usually forces me to do them all myself, so stops any sort of recovery as I never get long enough of a break to get back to normal. It's probably a logical progression combined with the anxiety tablets not working and the new ones only for special occasions as not slow release. Complicated but makes sense eventually. <BR/><BR/>I went to Amsterdam when I was at school. It was nice enough but no more paradise than parts of London during the same era. You can find your location within a few miles if you know where to look, I never saw anywhere abroad that was that different to anywhere else.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062717140344359936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7479077.post-1152832808312633992006-07-14T00:20:00.000+01:002006-07-14T00:20:00.000+01:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062717140344359936noreply@blogger.com
