I randomly wish that I could keep working from home once everything goes back to normal, it's been really good for my mental health!

Glad to see some recent posts on this thread, although I am sorry that it took this horrible Virus and the resulting Panic over it to get people to post.
Have any members of this thread been infected, or know anyone, friends, family, or strangers who have been infected?
I had my twice yearly check up with my doctor, both he and myself, and his nurse wearing masks, and he said he had only heard of two cases locally.

I randomly wish that there had been some posts in the last 6 months on here... Let's get the ball rolling again Last time you mentioned you left your work because it was making you ill. How is your recovery in the last 6 months?

I randomly wish that there had been some posts in the last 6 months on here... To be honest...I didn't want to be the next and wanted to see how long it took.

How is your recovery in the last 6 months? View AttachmentDoing a bit better now than I was, but it's been a bumpy ride. When I first left I was tired but seemed fine, and then about 2 weeks after that, I got really terrible physical anxiety symptoms (racing heart, tense muscles etc) even though I wasn't thinking about anything anxiety provoking. Popped to my local town to get something and nearly had a panic attack but managed not to. After that I sort out a therapist to work through my low self esteem, upset over the last job and subsequent anxiety about working. So been having phone appointments with them since about March I think. Things are slowly getting a bit better - I've been out a bit but mostly with others but it's been fine, and working on not blaming myself for what happened in the workplace. It's also come out that I'm probably neurodivergent so currently trying to work out how I feel about that. Likely ADHD (female edition). Thanks for asking I randomly wish that there had been some posts in the last 6 months on here... To be honest...I didn't want to be the next and wanted to see how long it took. I would have posted sooner but I've been distracted by the above... mental health sure is fun eh?

First of all big hugs from me Gill, with everything that has happen, it is not easy to re-adjust quickly. You are valued and loved here, thank you for sharing your vulnerability and showing how resilient you can be. As a person who has been through a similar experience, please know that it will eventually get better but the initial hurdles will be hard so take it a day at a time.

Thanks Zoe Still moving through therapy at the moment but finally starting to just vaguely think about what the future for me might look like rather than not even wanting to consider it, which I guess is progress of a sort.
