I'm sorry. That is such an adjustment to go back, especially before you are ready. My experience is that the longer one is off work, it only gets harder and harder to go back and be an active part of society. I wish you well. May I recommend taking a couple pictures along that comfort you and taping them inside a notebook on your desk maybe???

I think I've been having more anxiety attacks lately, or maybe I'm just more aware of what they are now. I'm so worried about going back. I don't want to go. Feel like I can't breathe and I'm going to crawl out of my skin!!
