So I've been off work (a job that I don't like!) since 20th Jan when I had a MC at 5wks or so.
I'm due back next Thursday but as of right now, the thought of sitting there pretending all is ok (only a handful know) is filling me with dread. I have a feeling I will just sit and cry all day. My problem is I know the longer I'm off the harder it will be to go back. Also the friends there that do know haven't really contacted me other than a couple of texts. This hurts me a bit too, as the least I'd do is send a card or flowers. But that's another story!
I thought I was starting to level off emotionally a bit this week but then today I've been really down and tearful, but next week I might be better.
I'd just like to ask other peoples experiences on returning to work and how long you had off etc. I realise that everyone is different and people deal with this in different ways/times but I'm just interested to know. A friend of mine has just said that I should take as long as I need to and f**k everyone else which I'm trying to force myself to believe (I'm not known for putting myself first and not Caring what others think!).
Thanks everyone, any advice much appreciated! Xx
