You may not want to, but I think it's worth the chat.ย

thirded or fourthed - you need to speak to someone, probably the GP. And it sounds like you may need some time off work just to get a clearer head etc. It's a tough conversation to have with work, no doubt. My 2p is that it sounds like it may not be quite the right job for you, given how it's adding to your difficulties; but you don't need to tell them that, at least not for now. You can tell them it's some challenges you're facing in your personal life, you just need time off to help get back on an even keel etc.ย 

But first stop, GP; it'll all be much easier once you have their opinion and recommendation

Hey pal, it sounds like things aren't gonna get any better unless you do something like see the GP.

Did you give that thing I sent you a go? It's designed for people in just your kind of situation and it's free so might be worth trying if you didn't. My colleague used it and said it was good.

Drop me a line if you want any more info, and wish you the best

I don't want to let anyone down, I'm scared to go back to the GP and potentially get signed off.
