Years ago because of an abusive husband I wound up in the hospital for 13 days. When I did go back to work after two months, all I could do was cry. I cried when I got to work, I cried at lunch and I cried at nite. I learned a trick that helped me. I decided that I could walk away from this job anytime I want and I would find something else..so I went in the morning and said I am only going to stay till lunch...then I will go...so I ate lunch and went back to work and said again..that I will only stay till the end of the day......and this went on for about three weeks.
I knew I did have an option, no matter how bad things were emotionally for me. That option, and breaking down the day into small increments helped me get thru the day. I also broke up my nite as well. If I knew I could leave whenever I wanted, it gave me the strength to stay!!!!
I hope the day is over now and you are back home safe. It does get better. I kept working for the State of Florida 10 more years before I retired and found another position!!!!!!!
Thinking of you tonite!!!!!
