I have posted a few times on the boards, but as a brief history-I am 54 yr old female and have had depression since 1991. On various meds but now back on 40mg of Prozac and doing fairly well. I had total knee replacement on Sept 1 and am almost healed from that. Really did very well postop after first week. But I am also an RN and I am terrified to look into the job market again ( the last job only was one month because of knee problems). I worked for over 25 years in previous city but since we moved three years ago finding a job that suited me has been hard. Now I just do not want to work at all. But we need my income. What could be the matter with me? Should I just go work in a bookstore for little pay which I am not sure I could even get hired and am afraid to even apply there. Am I getting a phobia? I sit in the house day after day and worry about this so sooner or later, I will get depressed again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
