Scared to return to work

I've not worked for 2 years now, I left my last job after a horrible situation of bullying and not supported by managers. I've been on medication since.

Now I'm thinking of working in a different role but I'm so anxious of being dragged into a toxic environment. People say go to work and keep your head down but Its easier said than done. I find it hard to brush things off and ruminate a lot. I need to get out there though as I've become a recluse. But it's so much easier mentally to stay home.

Could you start your own business?

I work from home and that means that most of the politics passes me by unless I choose to have a voice over it. I don't have to listen to it if I don't want it. Maybe look for something home based?

I wish I could work from home. Unfortunately I don't have anything I could do. I'm used to care work. Not really qualified.
