In September I (28f) fell and bumped my ass while at work, which ignited sciatica nerve pain that goes from my lower back all the way down my left leg to my foot. This pain does NOT go away, it's awful and constant.
On Saturday my partner and I went to a Halloween party and both got sick. 
I haven't been to work all week. 
I'm really scared to go back because the shop owner isn't a nice person to me (doesn't believe in mental illness, and only cares about making money) and I am a barber, so from sitting and coughing/ sneezing all week it's made my sciatica pain so much worse especially in my lower back.
I feel like I am in a fog that is my life and it feels endless. 
The pain is fucking overwhelming and my house is now a disaster. Piles. Everywhere.
I haven't eaten right in a week but I can't move without pain so I make myself sleep.
