Thanks Everyone.
I turned down the job.
During our meeting, I handed her organizational charts to suggest how to restructure the department and recommended a colleague who would be good in the position.

I've been thinking about lots of stuff since we had the meeting last week.

I don't want the job, but I wish I were well enough to take it if I did want it.

What's wrong with me.
Sheesh. I know better than to focus on things that I put behind me.

Mari

Don't be too hard on yourself Mari, you are allowed to dream about what life could be like if you were more 'well'. I dream about it, and sometimes I can't stop myself from dreaming about the what if's about the accident and my leg and all. I feel its the same with BP, you can't help but to think about what if you didn't have it and were more well, you know? I Think that is only normal. I wish I had thought about this before my last therapy appt. I would like to talk to my T about this, since it is on my mind too.

I hope you feel better about things soon, I see the topic title of your other thread and am about to pop over there and check it out. I just had to post here though, because I understand how you feel. It's not easy to face this disorder and having sleep issues on top of it only compounds the emotional impact of facing having BP. Hang in there Mari, it will get easier. I think you did the right thing turning this position down.

I think you handled it well. You thought it out and found what would be best for you.

Now that is one hurdle that is over.

Don't stress on "what if" as Pam said, I know it's hard, but analyzing it now will only stress you out.

Sending good vibes, good thoughts and happy days.

Hugs, Nikko

Dear Mari,
I hear your frustration.
I too wonder what if I were more well and able to fully engage in society.
Keeping to my somewhat small life is all I can take for the most part.
They should be glad that you gave them some organizatioonal flow chart....that was very good/team player on your part.
Were they receptive at all?
