So I saw my GP today.
I have been on 10mg of cit for 2 weeks and 20mg for 4 weeks. He said its probably too early for the tablets to have fully taken effect and keeping me on 20mg. I have been signed off for another three weeks with the option to a phased return within that time before the term finishes. I was very anxious going into to the GP but controlled it better. Just sending in my certificate to work via email made my anxiety very high. I feel relief when i get signed off again, am i just putting off the inevitable? Am i just avoiding work because its safer? I am worried that if I do not go back then I never will. Surely I will know when I am ready? Will there be a time when i think about work and the anxiety is not there?
Its a really tough time for me a t the moment. My union has been very supportive and have told me just to take your time as you are unwell and your body needs to heal.
