The thought of going to work terrifies me.
I’ve had this several times before, some days I’m fine and I go with no problem, but more days than not I just can’t go.
I work in a florist’s and have been a florist for years, I know the job like the back of my hand, but for some reason the thought of being in the shop all day by myself leaves me feeling physically ill.
My heart starts racing, I burn up, feel faint and light headed, feel sick and get a pain in my chest so bad that I often think I’m having a heart attack.
If I manage to get into work (with a lot of help from my parents) I seem to forget how to do the most simple task, I am a complete mess, customers come in and ask me things, I know I know, but I can’t string a sentence together. When the phone rings, my mouth gets so dry I can’t speak, I get breathless and I can hear my heart thumping in my head. I just want to lock the door, unplug the phone and hide.
I don’t know what to do any more, I just really feel I can’t go to work; I can’t face leaving the house. But if I call in sick (which is another struggle in its self) I feel so bad that I’ve let the boss down.
I Just really don’t know what to do I feel like I can’t cope anymore.
