First day back to work and I've screwed it up

[Icket]

After two months off, today is my first day back to work. I tried last week and it resulted in a full day of panic attacks. It was a nightmare.

This morning, I got up early, took my time and am so proud of myself for keeping it together. My coworkers are friends so I anticipated a day full of questions and looks so I was going to get there early to get settled first.

And here I am - ready to go - and I can't find my keys. ANYWHERE.

I am so disappointed and angry with myself. This is the first day that I've felt like I can accomplish things and I've screwed it up.

Ugh.

I totally understand the 'Ugh' feeling but just keep calm and carry on - you will be fine. Non-anxious souls lose their keys just as much as anxious ones! This is normal, you haven't failed at anything - as long as you keep trying you cannot lose.

I hope you find them, and don't let this very tiny blip get the better of you! Onwards and upwards, I'm sure you'll have a great day.
