I have to go to work tomorrow and I hate going I hate how I feel about it I hate that I feel sick going I hate how I feel in the morning
I hate going
I don’t like thinking about it and I won’t be able to stop thinking about it
I had a good day now just trying to be distracted but I can’t stop thinking about it
and the fact that I have to even go is oissing me off because I hate it
I don’t hate my job I hate going I want to be home with my family

Ah, that sounds extra difficult @ArraDreaming
Does it settle down once you are actually at work? Or is it the thought of being away from family mostly that makes you feel this way?
I guess (and I'm only guessing) you might feel like you have no options? No way out of your current situation that is making you want to bang your head...

Hey @ArraDreaming ,
It's that dreaded anxiety again?
It reminds me of your boy anxious to go to school... probably not because school is that bad, but because he loves his family and wants to stay with you....
btw, to stop your posts getting blocked, I just had to edit the self-harm parts. Sorry.
Can your family come and have a cuppa with you tomorrow?

Do what you are able @ArraDreaming . I know your son uses your hat as a safety thing (kid's version).... can you think of Jay's safety 'thing'? What would work for you?
I know you are a family man and that you love your family a lot. They depend on you.
However, if you don't feel you are able to go, that's also okay.
I'll stand by you.
