I have a pendent that is made of the ashes of my best friend. I carry him around all the times. He unfortunately left me unexpectedly a few years ago.

Today, I can’t bear to take him with me to work. I have been feeling so ashamed at work. I hope he understands.

Just venting. Please don’t send me any self help message. I am not thinking of it.

    I think I understand; you don’t want your friend to see you at your worst. I hope that since you posted this you’ve gotten better self esteem at your job. 🫶

    I don’t understand the work shame and how work and the friend are related.

    Is this a literal off my chest? Pendant not on chest? I don’t understand otherwise.
