Work uncertainty - stress, anxiety, crying

Hi, I have no idea if I will have a job to go back to once my furlough is over and I feel like my mental health is going downwards. I just can't cope with not knowing what will happen. I have been told I will be contacted by the end of next week about the next steps, but have no clue whether that means losing my job, or going back.

I just can't cope with this uncertainty. I am obsessively checking emails, intranet, messages all the time and darent switch my phone off in case there is news (if I miss a call from them they never return it). I'm snappy and distant with my kids and can't sleep with worry. How can I just get through the next few days. My anxiety and stress levels are just sky high, and I keep going into the kitchen to have a cry. I just dont know how to get through the next few days.

Than you for replying Deblou. It is horrendous, I agree. It's a professional role (very outing if I say it along with my other posts!), and I'm a middle manager and have a team to look out for too. I just wake up feeling sick each morning wondering if today is the day.
