I recently lost my husband in a terrible accident 2 weeks ago. I have been devestated and severly depressed. I have been off work for 2 weeks. I know that it is important to stay busy and work but I found myself unable to concentrate and too emotional and my job requires intense concentration. I am staying busy in other ways working in my garden, mowing the grass, taking care of my dog, walking on the beach, cleaning house, etc. I actually feel busier than when I was working. I have an option to go on a leave of absence until I am ready to come back. I just want to know if other people have had a loss of a loved one and had to take a leave of absense from work and how long before you were able to work again? Thanks
