I've a long history of depression & have been off work for 2 weeks. Recently I have been having totally OTT reactions to things. Two examples I can think of as follows:
Lost a voucher we had for 25% off the place we were getting dS1's main present from. I cried and cried and got really angry with myself for losing it. Only calmed down once I sent out a plea & a lovely MNter sent me a code.
- We were invited to the birthday party of one of DS1's friends. I got the time wrong & we arrived an hour late. It was one where you get an hour soft play & then have tea, so basically we had 2 minutes of soft play. I was really close to tears both at the party & afterwards & still feel like I could cry now. The parents weren't offended and DS1 didn't care.
I had felt like I was getting better but keep having these totally inappropriate reactions and I'm now getting very anxious about returning to work tomorrow.
