Back to work tomorrow

John - 12 Aug 2007 17:16 GMT Well, I start back to work tomorrow. I'm a little (lot :o) nervous. I'll have to shift my daily 2.5 mile walk to the evenings since I have to be in work at 7:15 AM and have a 45 minute commute. I usually wake at 5:30. I have been throwing around the free weights a bit, so maybe I can do that for 10 minutes in the morning.
As the sole support of my wife and son, I feel good about being productive again but a little overwhelmed at the prospect of managing my diabetes, calming my stress (I HATE my commute and driving in general) and being a valuable employee...oh and battling the depression I've aquired since the heart attack.
Wish me luck, folks. You've all been an inspiration to me and I've learned a lot here. I may not post all that much, but I read everything and you're all in my prayers.

It sounds like you're in touch with how you're feeling, and making time for excercise, rescheduling etc., so hopefully it all goes smoothly for you. :-)

Hi John,
Being productive is a good thing! You do have a lot to be thankful for, and your family and the world need you.
I hope you are successful in your efforts to find ways to deflect and manage your stress load... Commuting can be such a drag.... many of us have to spend long hours in transit every week, whether it is time spent just getting to the office, or getting to where the work is located, which in my case is often a distant courthouse or prison. Sometimes, I just listen to great music from my CD collection.... Other times, I listen to educational tapes and CDs to broaden my horizons, so to speak. Among the things I really enjoy using that time for are learning new languages and listening to recordings of "courses" in all sorts of areas of learning. For instance, for the next week, or so, I am getting ready to listen to a series of lectures about the writings and work of John Milton....
Books like the one I suggested on here earlier last week, "Rebooting" can be useful aids in finding ways of managing stress and overcoming depression, plus you might learn a little about Kabbalah, as approached in a completely non-esoteric and understandable way, if you read that book. Also, staying busy with an avocation, such as a hobby or art that you really enjoy, can be positively rejuvinating. Volunteer work, or being active in a church or synagogue is the ticket for lots of folks. Whatever you do, however, I really want you to be happy.... I think a sense of happiness is really good for your health.
Good luck, and be well.....
Will, T2

Loretta Eisenberg - 12 Aug 2007 20:35 GMT John, is this a new job for you. If so, congratulations . I am so sure that this has helped your depression.
45 minutes to me isnt such a terrible commute. If I took the train to the city, it was at least an hour. The one thing I agree with though is that I would hate the driving part now, although for years I did drive to work. I wonder if age has anything to do with it.
Keep in touch and let us know how you are doing.

Managing diabetes could be a full time job in itself, making sure all your meals are healthy and "BG correct", etc. Then, the exercise routine and just keeping things going with a house and family could seem overwhelming. Add a 40 hr work week and a long commute and you've got a lot of stress added to the equation. Hopefully, the family is a good support for you, ie helping out with meals and chores and such. And keeping a positive attitude toward the work and exercise will make it less stressful. Make sure you can make some "you time" throughout the week. If you feel happy and in control of your life then depression can't get a hold of you. Good luck, we're all pulling for you!
