I know you're right about the job. But just getting dressed and putting on a professional face just seems beyond my capabilities right now. This is an organization that I do hope to work for at some point, even if not right now, so I think Id rather decline an interview than go for an interview and have it be horrible. I dont know. But I know I cant just not call back. Thats probably the worst choice of all.
My friend has a lot of problems of his own that he doesnt acknowledge (terribly abusive childhood, etc), so it shouldnt really surprise me that he cant handle me reaching out either. But even knowing that intellectually, it's hard not to just shut down in response.
I watched a movie and I'm feeling a little better right now. I'm sure it wont last but every moment counts I guess. Movies seem to help. I dont plan to go back to the hospital unless forced though - it was not a good or helpful experience in most ways.
