Hi everyone,

I went to the doctor because of the intense anxiety I have been feeling. I was diagnosed with depression over 10 years ago and I am in my 30s. I genuinely feel like the main reason for my anxiety is my job and the amount of work I have to do for it. I work from 7:30am until 6pm every weekday and work Sunday at home too. The work I am supposed to do is still not done at that point and I found myself utterly spent, unable to keep working and despairing.

The doctor signed me off work for nearly 3 weeks. This was very welcome. But, two days into it, I am feeling lost and dreading return.

My question is, how do I make the most of this time? What should I do?

Any advice or suggestions at all are very welcome. I'm open to anything.
