Hey guys,
I was just re-reading this thread and all of your encouraging posts.
Last week I finally took an "emergency" mini-leave from work - I work in ministry (Christian) at a non-profit, and had been slowly burning out for a while, but things really came to a head over the last couple weeks. I ended up in my supervisor's office last week, crying, 'cause I just HATED being there and felt completely overwhelmed with the IBS, work-related issues/frustrations/stresses, a broken foot, and on and on... All of this burn-out and subsequent stress was just wrecking my GI track too - no appetite (still), nausea, yada yada.
My boss gave me his blessing to take 4 days off. This at a very critical time right before an absolutely insanely busy summer season, so I'm SUPER thankful. I gotta tell you - this really transformed my outlook on work, life, etc. And I feel better health-wise too. I feel (& act) a whole lot more like ME now, rather than the burned-out zombie I was.
So - this time off, combined with all of your caring words continue to hold me up. AND...my Audio 100 CD's arrived, and I just completed session 1 last night (as I fell asleep)!! I'm so excited to get this hypno underway.
Thanks again for being there for me when I needed it!

P.S, - one of these days, I have to learn how NOT to type fast so my posts aren't so stinkin' long!
