I know this isn’t the place to post but I’m feeling desperate this morning. My anxiety is sky high after feeling in control for the last couple of weeks.

I’m at work, feel like my chest is about to burst and I don’t know how I’m going to make it to 5 pm.

I want to cry and crawl under my duvet Sad

Family stuff happened yesterday which has triggered this, poor nights sleep due to worrying. I’ve tried so hard to “snap out if it” this morning-had a shower, played some music, ate a decent breakfast.

I just feel like today is too much and I can’t cope. Have a counselling appointment this Friday and I’m considering calling our workplace health providers counselling line as I just feel I’m at the end of my rope Sad

Can you go home?

Pipanchew2 · 03/02/2020 10:21

Definitely call the counselling line. Hugs OP anxiety is horrid especially if you’re at work. Just think ahead to nice things you can do once you get home.

@sashh

I was off sick just before Christmas with the same issues. Trying so hard not to go back down that road

Do call the work helpline, it's what they are there for and I'm sure you will feel better afterwards.

What are you doing for lunch? Plan to go for a walk and get some air.

Call the help line, ask them for help. If you are ill you are ill, you can't change that.

Aw OP - it's horrible when you feel so anxious. And then you don't sleep as a result.

Don't feel guilty about maybe needing more time off for this.

In the meantime - handhold and Flowers
