My T said this is common after long episodes and to take it easy as I can but also engage in life as much as possible. Today I was so irritable I nearly bit my Dad's head off even though he was trying to help me with a technology problem. I just didn't have the patience for it. Scared I am falling into another episode already, a mixed one. Just hope it passes quickly and I can get back into a semi-normal life.
It sounds like you are experiencing the normal anxiety of returning to work after a long break. Try to remember that work is only a part of your life.
It is not your life. Try to master the art of being in the here and now and let tomorrow take care of itself!

You will get into the work routine in no time at all.

Best wishes!
