The first week back to work after 3 months off…

I think it’s the emotional stress of literally getting your head to make it think again at a certain pace about professional things. I have to really concentrate on what people are saying, or really work hard to remember basic things. It seems to be filtered through a dense fog.

No full panic attacks, but as the week went on and I got more tired, I had more symptoms such as pins and needles in my face, arm, hot flushes, tight chest, breathlessness etc. Plenty of symptoms of the hyperventilating, but I'm really on top of reading my body now and know how to avert the full blown pas.

One day at a time….

	... It certainly does take time to get back in the "work mode" after such a long time off - especially after battling nervous and mental fatigue. Don't expect too much, cut your days back if you can, and pace yourself. Life will feel normal again soon enough!
