My pdoc can tell my mood from my face too @Eve7 I think sometimes we wish they couldn't tell, but for our own good, it is good that they know as too well.
I hope they were able to help you today hon.
That must be a tricky one about work. Only you can make that decision hon. All I can say is do what you feel is right for you. Work will still be there tomorrow however.
My day loos ok. Have done what I needed to do this morning so just have a bit of a rest now.

Thanks @Snowie I’m ok today but tomorrow I have to facilitate 4 hours of training. I used to love the training side of work but not anymore. My anxiety is going through the roof.
I know pdoc will give me a med cert for it but how many can I give them written by a “consultant psychiatrist” before I am forced out of a job I once loved?

Hi @Eve7
Sorry to hear you have so much anxiety about your training tomorrow. Do you have some grounding techniques you can practice today?
Thinking of you
Hanami

@Eve7 I'm sorry to hear that your anxiety is going through the roof hon. It is hard when we have done something so much, could probably do it with our eyes closed, causes us so much angst.
If you have a medical certificate then they cannot force you out of your job hon. But they can make it so difficult that it is hard to continue.
I know this decision is a hard one and something only you can make. Whatever you decide to do please know that we are here for you.
I hope you enjoy your cuppa hon 💜💜
