Feeling useless

Helennn profile image

Hi all, haven't posted on here for a while as my health seemed to be looking up. After a weekend of no sleep and pain though I decided yesterday enough was enough and went to the doctors. Turns out I have an ear canal infection and I'm on antibiotics and ear drops. I can't work as I have to wear a headset. Just feeling very useless and down today.

Everyone is 'useless' when they're poorly. Don't be sad, just luxuriate in being able to do nothing for a while. You'll be back in busy mode all too soon!

Haha yeah I guess they are! Went back to work today and they found some admin work for me to do but not sure how long it will last as my job is working on the phones x
