How's your day been?

To be honest the last week or two have been rocky. It seems no matter what I do is never good enough. I ditched Facebook last month because I realised that no-one gave a damn about me (it's always been the same). My voluntary work is crap

I'm profoundly negative about life (as you've probably guessed). My family is at each other's throats (not literally) and with Christmas coming up its just hard to be upbeat but the root cause is loneliness.

What happened with the "coping trauma" group? Yeah, you can't depend on Facebook for emotional/psychological support. What voluntary work do you do?

The coping with trauma group is a potential option for therapy. I work for a charity

What is crap about your voluntary work?

What is crap about your voluntary work?

I volunteer for an advice organisation and my role is to reply to emails. I have to read the email, write a draft response, send it to my supervisor for them to give it the green light, send the reply and log it.

This bit is subjective.

There's either no work to do when I get there or there's a lot which isn't an issue because it helps to keep me busy.

Sometimes there isn't even a supervisor in the office and I have to email the drafts to the supervisor and wait.

This has been mentioned by other staff members.
