Things have been rocky for several weeks and now it's starting to affect my work. And since my job is still freelance work for now, I live paycheck to paycheck. I will be starting local work in 2 months time(legistics around being foreigner and some issues) but in the meantime it means I got payment week to week. I lost one week for reasons related to the job itself at the start of the month. But with my health as it has been lately I can feel it really affecting me. Still working because I do a lot of selfcare the rest of the time... But I don't have sick days, and lately it's starting to really affect things. Like working 6h but really only managing as much as I would in 4 for example. Or needing many breaks. I'm afraid I'll make my shaky finances even worse if this doesn't improve soon. Seeing my therapist next Wednesday, but in the meantime I really need to get myself better. I'm scared of how this my capabilities are wearing so quickly. This went from a little anxious to barely coping in a month and I can't keep doing worse, I need this work. I don't have anything to fall back on. I have to keep digging my heels in the ground and grinding so one day maybe I can have a job where I can afford to take a week if I need it.
