I've missed a lot of work because I've been sick. I've had colds, and upset stomachs, etc. The thing is, I could work through it, and I know I could except for I always get so nervous about feeling trapped it gets the best of me. I always think "what if I can't function because I get so sick while at work." that I can't work. What makes it worse is the people i work with. If I have a cold and have to run to the bathroom to blow my nose, they get so angry, like they are jealous because I have to blow my nose. They can be childish and silly at times about me working while not feeling well. Which makes me feel like i am going to have a panic attack. I like my job because i see the same people everyday, so i am used to them by now, but i can't deal with the few that question me about everything and get so mad at me for no reason. At least I am at work, right?
What can i do to calm myself down? I get so nervous because I hate being judged, and a couple of them make big deals out of little things. I always feels trapped and corned, which gives me panic attacks.
