It may be a side effect if you are on medication or low white blood cells with your immune system running low also. i'm no doctor, but this can come on from mental stress. Everyone knows you should eat healthy, but here is a list. https://www.verywellfamily.com/best-foods-boost-immune-system-4020423 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Fuckin dreading tonight. First new year without my dad. I know it’s worse for my mum but just sitting here breaking my heart. Know how you feel, I was in the same place at Xmas/New Year last year. The birthdays, anniversaries and the festive season are definitely the worst for giving you a swift boot in the balls to remind you that you are missing someone. This year has been a bit easier. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 On 31/12/2019 at 16:07, The Gypsy King said: I resigned from my job yesterday. Although it has become a horrible place to work and was impacting my mental health - due to a moratorium being enforced, and the manager coming in on Christmas Eve to threaten us all with redundancies - I have an anxiety about where I am going to go next. I don't have anything lined up but since applying for some jobs since yesterday, I already have some interviews. I have this sense of dread that maybe where I end up won't be any better than the job I am about to leave. I am starting a university course in a few months and despite being euphoric at first as it will enable me to do what I have always wanted to do, I have became apathetic about it which is not a good sign for me. Maybe the anxiety about stepping off the edge into the unknown is natural, and it will turn out OK in the end. Who knows? I feel a lot better now. In my profession, males with experience (oh err missus!) are highly sought after as there is still a push within healthcare to challenge the idea that it's a feminine profession. So I should find something else no problem, and have applied for many vacancies. Fortunately I have enough "spare" money for finding new work to not be a matter of extreme urgency, and to have the luxury of being able to afford to be "fussy" and only apply for jobs that I would actually want. Even if it's only a short-term thing to keep money coming in. So yes, I'm not going to starve to death or end up on the street even if I haven't found a new job by the end of my current notice period. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good on you for getting yourself in that position financially, too many people are stuck in jobs that make them miserable but can't afford to leave which leaves them at their employers mercy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I'll post this in here as seriously not got a clue what to do. Taking care of my newborn Skye for the hear, which has been very special, but my mind is running crazy most of the time. I started to look for a new job, very very difficult here as lots of red tape to employ a western....never mind. I went for an open interview, which I got down to the last 3. Now they asked for a resume . We do things back to front here. I've never had a resume for over 20 years. If ever Sure I can look online. Good tips welcome 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Really struggling. I start my new job this morning and I am finding it hard to stop crying and am worried I’ll go in looking upset. I am so used to chatting with Craig over text during the day that I really miss not speaking to him. Despite what he has done we had been very close. I am also finding it hard that people I know are like “New job, new home it’s very exciting/great opportunity” etc. I know they mean well, but I liked my old life very much and didn’t want it to go. It just comes across as though his cheating was somehow him doing me a favour. I am so tired because I can’t sleep either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good tips welcome The main things are to make the CV relevant to the role. You should have the history there but think about what you will be doing in the job, then write the details with that in mind I.e if it’s admin then emphasise the admin stuff you do and relevant systems you use. Keep it quite short and make each bit quite succinct. That will make it better as people don’t want to wade through text for relevant info. Let me know if you need any help, happy to look over it for another opinion if you like. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to be a difficult period no matter what so just break things down as much as you can. One task at a time, one step at a time. Don't let the concept of new job and huge change in the personal life at the same time overwhelm you. Work wise you will be fine, you earned this job and you will see in time that there's nothing to worry about. And from what I've read here you've handled your personal life with a lot of strength and dignity, so it's just a case of keeping doing what you're doing. Things will get better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently had to read through 15 or so CV's for a job. I quickly realised I can't read every one word for word. - Name, contact details etc - Brief background of yourself - Qualifications - Career history - Experience of any relevant systems etc if applicable - Anything else relevant Don't waffle, one cv I read this guy was saying about his local cricket team he plays for, get that shit in the bin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good tips welcome As has been said, keep it really brief apart from your most recent and relevant jobs. For instance I just put Oil industry year x to y if the new job has no connection to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
