Returning to office is messing me up

[NearToCompletion]

I know it's the same for lots of people and I always knew it was coming. Just really struggling today, with all the reports in the news that the government are pushing for everyone to go back in the office. My mental health has been so much better at home, I've felt so much less anxious, calmer and closer to my family. My productivity has been much better too because of this. Just the thought of having to go back is making me feel nauseous, dazed and anxious.

Could you speak to your boss about working from home permanently?

It wouldn't go down well, our company is v old fashioned and have already made clear the expectation is we will all return. Despite the fact our jobs can be done perfectly well at home with just visits in for the odd meeting.
