No need to apologise friend! Sometimes a dose of cold water reality is needed. Something low pressure, where i just have to be responsible for me and my output and down have to work for a cowardly, manipulative boss would be an absolute dream come true right now.

And now i’m back to 'in two weeks i’m going to be out of a job and i’m going to lose my apartment because i can’t pay rent and be homeless or dead" fuck I hate anxiety so much

Yeah I think I was romanticising a bit. I’m just super anxious about a situation at work that I’m worried is going to blow up in a week or so and I’m anticipating needing a new job in the next couple of weeks. I’m a casual working full time hours but in this economic climate I haven’t been able to accrue much savings. So I’m just very stressed out and looking for any solution and thought getting my RSA and going hospo and start studying would be it.

Thank you for your advice! I was thinking I’d do the bartending short course and just learn the basics of drink making. I have no idea how to make cocktails and can’t pour a beer on tap. I also assumed that bar or pubs would want someone with at least some training as they may not have time to train someone from scratch

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who replied last night to my anxiety freak out. I had a shower, a cup of lemsip and that helped me calm down and I got a decent sleep. Woke up this morning feeling less catastrophic and thinking that maybe sometimes shitty things happen for good reasons. I really want to return to study so had the idea to maybe do a bartending short course at the vic bar school and get a hospo job and get out of retail management so I can finally return to study and do a counselling course. Anyone done a course at the vic bar school per chance and has advice?

I’m sorry to put a dampener on everyones friday night, but I’m not coping right now. I feel like my life isn’t getting better I feel like the last few years I’ve been in this near constant state of fight or flight. I just wish my life would finally settle down. the last few years every time I think it has, something happens to cause chaos again. I’m just exhausted and stressed out and I don’t want to be here any more.

I sadly got made redundant after the company was bought out by an investment firm

This ongoing situation at work has me horrifically anxious. I am so done with toxic workplaces and just wish i could find a chill job to settle down in and probably return to study. My last job ended up being very toxic and now this one. I’m feeling pretty hopeless and terrified my next job is also going to be toxic. Man I wish i had a time machine so I could just relive the years 2011 - 2017 over and over again. Those were happy years with a great job.
