Work anxiety

Went back to work today. It was hard but I made it through the day. Tonight I’m so stressed out I’m feeling like I’m going to explode. My nerves are shot and am laying here awake. I guess I’m just asking for input from others as I’m feeling very isolated and alone

I'm sorry to hear that you had a hard time at work. Adjusting after taking a break can definitely be stressful, but you're definitely not alone in this. After being on my job for about a yr, I was still feeling anxious. It got to the point where I had excuse myself from meetings to prevent myself from crying. I felt alot better once I sat down and reviewed what about work made me stress out. Of course, I took sometime to calm down first. Deep breaths and a funny video always makes me feel better. Try focusing on trying to find something comforting, and focus on that for this evening.

Thank you for the ideas. I had a really bad night but did help it by doing breathing and meditation. I think I just feel so bad physically that I’m afraid of doing anything.
