HI,
I was in a bad way last night.
I thought I was losing it.
I did self talk until I fell sleep.
I'm frightened.
I had 4.5 hours of sleep and have to be at work.
I have been skipping appoints with the orthodontist. I just called. The first day that they and I have open is May 10.

What about coming out of the closet only as far as getting a doctor's note? As far as i know, diagnoses / medical reasons need not be disclosed. Can one of the doctors simply certify that you are not fit to do the weekend hours? Then the "rationale" remains between you and that doctor.

I might have to get an MDs note. I've discussed this with two colleagues without telling them more than a little bit -- not much. Frankly, I'm upset that I did come out to them the little bit that I did. I'm disturbed that I had to reveal stuff to them. VERY UPSET.
One colleague tells me that our big boss should accept "personal medical problem" without a note. If she requires a note, then, according to him, she is showing how awful she is.
I have to meet with the big boss about some other issues entirely next week that are even more important to me than the outside event this weekend and I am freaking out about that. She has been supportive in the past but I am getting a different vibe from her now.
My immediate supervisor has us all screaming. She is truly awful.
Morale in my group is low. We have not been able to help each other the way we have in the past. From my group the supervisor has fired one and pushed another into retirement -- both of them this week. We are devastated by the losses.
