Thats not really like me cos i'm usually pretty optimistic and upbeat but a couple of months ago i called in sick to work but my colleague never passed on the message so i got fired for not turning up and not calling in, my boyfriend just left me for someone else and he is spending christmas with her, i've had fraudulent activity done on my bank card and got the shock of my life to discover i have absolutely nothing in it when i had been saving for christmas and to make it better everyone in my family is going to my sister and brother in laws for christmas and i really dont get on with my other sisters boyfriend (which is the understatement of the century!) so i have been asked not to go. i feel like nothing is going my way lately at all. i miss my boyfriend so much but he doesnt respond to any texts or emails i send and i feel so lonely. i know im feeling sorry for myself but what should i do?

i can see why your upset as life is pooing on you from all angles-my idea is if you are banned from your family Christmas don't buy them presents with the money you don't have. Explain that if you cant afford it and they don't want you there at Christmas that they're not getting a present. forget your boyfriend and go out with mates and spend Christmas with them. Look for another job-anything of any description to get some money and take away free time where you are wallowing. Also you'll have some money-look into the banks policy on fraud and see if they will refund the money (and don't take any crap lying down either{demand to see the manager if a member of staff brushes your claim aside, and tell the truth}). also i would go into your job and explain that you did call in and get the other worker to explain (maybe calling in sick too often meant that this was the straw that broke the camels back).life is a journey and sitting down to feel sorry for yourself will not get you back to your bright self-but taking positive action will empower you and you will see that when you put your mind to it you can achieve good things!good luck and get going!
