Good suggestion @Oaktree, I had managed well for another week and then anxiety started up as the workload increased and confidence started to drop, telling myself I can't do it. Just going to focus on getting through this afternoon now.

I don’t want to trivialise anxiety but it’s mind over matter. Maybe start listening to podcasts that work on confidence?

Hey @L-B , good on you for breaking down the task at hand to just the afternoon! There will be ups and downs, but we believe in you.

Another day down @L-B ! How's this fine day going for you?

[L-B]

I wish I could say otherwise @tyme but I am not coping well with work.

That's okay. You've had some good days to balance it out. Take it one step at a time. 

We are all here behind you and cheering you on!

Remember, recovery is not linear and upwards. It has a mind of its own at times and likes to take us back a few steps before we can have a clearer direction about moving forward. @L-B
