I took a year of temporary disability and I did it for my own sanity - not to mention a need to heal physically, emotionally and spiritually. I think if you're questioning whether you have the fortitude to do your job well that's a red flag telling you that you need to put yourself first right now. Please don't feel guilty about taking the time off to take care of yourself.
