Tired

So today I've woke feeling really tired and faint with a slight headache. But feeling rather guilty that I've had to phone in work and tell them I won't be in today as I just feel so tired and fain trying to explain to ppl is the worse thing ever and all I get well we feel tired. Should I feel guilty for being ill no but you just do and when u need to rest you do your body has that way of saying you've over done it . Does anyone else feel like this and feel guilty for not going to work ?

I am the same, I have just been signed off work for 2 weeks as I am still in a lupus/fibro flare as its summer. I do feel bad letting them down but we HAVE to put ourselves first huny as we have to listen to our bodies. I too have been forced (by my health) to cut my hours x

I am so genuinely sorry to read that, and I do not personally think that you should feel guilt as when you are poorly, then you are too poorly to go to work.! I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck.

All my hopes and dreams for you
