And I thought it could get no worse

Update here. Haven't been on in a few days. And here is why.
Recap: anxiety, not eating, missing work, etc... well the missing work has caught up with me. Although I explained what was going on to the higher-ups and let them know I was seeking help as fast as I could, I have been fired from my job. I am currently officially fired but under probational status for the next month, at which point they will reevaluate my position. I have a month to "get myself together" as they put it. Nice, eh?
So I basically cannot miss another minute of work or I'm totally canned. But no pressure, right?
I am going today for an emergency meeting with a psychiatrist to get on some meds immediately. If he can't put me on something that works, and helps me get out of my house and go to work, and that once I get to work I can stay there without freaking... I will have to be admitted into a hospital.
They havent addressed the eating issue... I'm pretty sure they are convinced its connected directly to the anxiety. But I am worried theyll give me meds and I wont be able to keep them down because I eat so little now,t hey might make me sick. I'l make sure I mention that today.
So, I'd appreciate some hugs coming this way... it was a damn tough weekend but I"m here and I"m not going anywhere. They wont get rid of me that easy.

Hi Natalie,
Big hugs are on the way. If it's ok, I will also be praying for you. Please keep us posted on the appt. with the psychiatrist. I hope they can find some meds for you that will work fast and that you will start to eat something.
Love & hugs, Kristina
