How do you know when you're about to have a nervous breakdown? I think I'm on the edge. I'm struggling with depression and I'm getting to the point where I don't want to leave the house or even get out of bed. I can't even do the housework. All I can think of is to work. I too work about 10 hours a day. Had tried to keep Saturdays free, but now am working then too. I lost my job to outsourcing and am so afraid I'm going to lose my jobs, I have three part time jobs. I used to take Cymbalta but now with no insurance I can't afford it. I take Prozac but doesn't seem to help. I have 7 animals that depend on me and can just manage to take care of them. I live alone. If I don't work, I feel lazy and guilty. I tried to do something I enjoy last night and just didn't enjoy myself like I usually do and wished I had just stayed home.

Thanks for letting me vent.

She seemed VERY nervous to me throughout the show, but

Too bad you can't understand about being nervous
She is a smart lady. She's governor of her state and they were really glad to have her back as governor. I watched an expert on MSNBC talking about her interviews and he said in all fairness she was not treated with respect and she was nervous.

She is a very smart lady and I'm sorry others are so bitter they can't see it.

I am getting really nervous about gas prices

creeping back up again. In my area it went from $1.59 to the present price of $1.99 a gallon. Any hope that it won't get to $4.00 again?

Good luck and just have fun. Why nervous?
Because he's a doctor or just because it's a first date?

Well...I am always nervous about letting my kids do things like that (sm)

But I usually let them do it. However, it would depend on the parents. I mean if the guy reeks of alcohol - how bad? Do you mean he drinks a beer or two on the weekends or is he a drunk? Will he be driving your son in a car or boat? If so, I would not be comfortable with that. I have said no at times if I am uncomfortable for a reason, but I always have to think it through and see if there is real danger or if I am just being me - a worry wart. I would find out if that dad is going, if he will be driving the car, if he will be driving a boat, etc. and make my decision from that.

It may be that your daughter is just nervous when she puts papers
in the folder because it sounds like she is being watched like a hawk. No child needs that, especially at this very young age. I don't blame you for being upset. This can be damaging to a child. I would take very little more, if any of that behavior from the teacher. You have a right to go above her with this complaint. Good luck!

nope not a gyn, family practice. gosh, i don't know why i am so nervous.......sm
maybe cuz i grew up very poor and just nervous about what to wear, how to act, where we are going, etc. and will i fit in. best part of the story is i was the one who posted about a month ago about getting out of a horrible relationship with an addict/abuser and wanting to stay single so i have had a hard life with a horrible man and this is my first date since single. yes, a little too soon i agree, but i can't pass the opportunity to go out with a doctor and he will IM me in between seeing pts and it is so funny and he is so sweet. he'll just pop up and say what kinda report you typing on now, you having a good day, etc. maybe at least it will make him think twice when he is dictating, LOL.

geez, see how nervous i am?? i can't even spell. i think i better quit working and go to sleep,
