Hi all

I have been having extreme negative thoughts about my new job and suffering anxiety attacks at the thought of going to work.

Many years ago this happened to me before and so I applied for a new job, didn't get it then felt happier to "live with" the current job.

I have asked my previous employer if I can have my job back but they said they need time to think about it due to organisational changes.

I am now on a knife edge about going to work knowing
1) I am not sure if it's for me
2) I'm waiting to hear about my old job

If I can't have my old job back, I cannot afford to resign because I have a big mortgage. If I go back to ucrrent job, how can I make myself be happy in it? Is this possible I can see passed my unhappiness and feel hopeful? Can you think yourself happy?

It will be hard to get time off for interviews if I go back to current job.
