If you've ever been stuck in life, how did you pick yourself up?

Asked by serenityNOW (3641points) July 14th, 2012

That’s it. I’m done for. I’m losing it…

Well, here’s my dilemma: I’m emotionally bottoming out. Working with the Developmentally Disabled is sucking the life out of me. I’m working overnight shifts, double-shifts and trying my best. The problem I’m seeing is, this is a small operation. It’s family run. Gossip runs along like wild-fire, and I’m hearing all sorts of stuff about me, and it really hurts. But, I’m stuck. Adversity is kicking me in the ass. (Strangely enough, working with the individual’s themselves is delightful, management is just awful.)

I need to work; I’m putting feelers out on Craigs List for web design jobs, and I can try another DD organization, but I don’t want to do something rash. So…

Getting back to my question: how’d y’all do it? How’d you make it through? Doesn’t have to be job related; I just want some tactics… Thanks all!
