Hi guys,
I posted a long winded thread last night trying my best to explain my situation and whats going on with work.
I received a letter this morning from my work asking me to come in for a meeting from my new job as I am off currently on sick leave.
They now know why I am off with anxiety/depression for a few weeks and want to discuss if I can continue within my role. Its a catch 22 as I feel I am not in the right place to be working just now but at the same time admitting this to myself and more so them I dont know whether I should?
I think the comfort of knowing that I have a job still waiting for me keeps me sane and I the thought of losing it makes me feel more anxious and depressed.
I am currently writing an email back and I feel I just want to be honest with them and tell them that I struggled within my previous employer and that most of my issues have stemmed from there etc. I dont know whether this is a good idea or not?
I didnt even want to tell them that I had depression but my dr had obviously put this on my line he had originally told me to take 12 weeks off and has set me up with a course but I told him to reduce it as much as I need the time to sort things out I didnt want to send a 12 week line in after only being in a few weeks!
I feel its a viscious circle/catch 22 I know I cant have it all, any advice would be much appreciated, I dont even know if I can face them in a meeting, I am going to ask if I can give my boss a call instead to discuss!
Thanks in advance
