Hi all,


I have been severely anxious throughout the last two years. I’ve had periods where I’ve been able to stay more rational about things ( since more has been known about the virus and preventatives such as vaccines have been around) but more often than not it still causes me a lot of mental stress and anxiety.

I have worked with the public throughout all of this which hasn’t helped as I’ve seen this as being an increased risk. I have been working in early years for the past 4 months and even though I am trying to get on as normal I am finding that I’m stressed more often than not. Especially with colds and probably covid being absolutely rife in such environments at the moment, this really triggers me and most days I feel on edge.


I’m seriously considering ( and have done many times) leaving my job as I just don’t know how much more I can handle. But then if I leave my job then I leave so much else behind which will also be very negative.

Feeling really deflated at the moment.
