I worked with someone who had fmla for anxiety as well. Of course my moron boss thought it was just an excuse for this person to miss work - it wasn't her decision to make about fmla. I tried explaining that I know how debilitating depression and anxiety can be, but my boss - is a close minded idiot. So whatever.
I have a real struggle sometimes getting out of bed for the day, going to work (what's the point?), doing laundry, cleaning the house, etc. I've been off meds for about 6 months and I'm thinking this is just part of the ups/downs of depression/anxiety. I keep taking it a day at a time because it's all I can do. And sometimes I call in sick. Because I have to.
I hope you're able to get your FMLA approved in short order and that soon you are able to feel better. Hugs.
