Bit of a random question. How would you broach this?

i have multiple mental and physical health issues that are really affecting my ability to function in life/work. I feel like I really need some time out just to reset and have some specialist therapy {EMDR} and have been looking at some residential centres overseas for around 6 weeks. I just don't really know how to raise this with my lovely boss? Any advice? I am the breadwinner so I can't afford to lose this job...

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our www.mumsnet.com/webguide/mental-health Mental Health resources]]. You can also go to the www.samaritans.org/ Samaritans website]] or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

We are going to move this thread to the Mental Health section shortly.
