Time off for bad behavior
Well.. I guess it was only a matter of time. I stopped taking my meds back in May because I didn't like what they were doing to me. I also don't like the idea of having to take them every day for the rest of my life. I guess I really need to come to terms with this idea though because I've gone downhill and now I'm off work pending an evaluation and treatment. I had to call the emergency EAP counselor on Thursday night at work because I was sort of freaking out or having a panick attack or something. The woman who evaluated me today said "your paper says you are OFF duty.. but we didnt know for how long, so we left it open ended." Basicaly, I can't go back to work until they can prove tht I will be able to function at my job. I have to burn all of my sick, vacation, and personal time in order to get paid something while I'm off. I can look into short term disability but don't know if that applies until after you're gone for 30 days. Who knows. Right now I just want the people in charge to tell me what to do so that I don't have to think. I'm glad I have some time off.. maybe it will help. I don't know if I could take losing another job (lost my last one in a very similar situation).
