A massive heart felt well done to you. Its a huge achievement, and you should feel very proud. I can't add to the brilliant thoughts and advice already given. Just try to enjoy it and don't be too hard on yourself. It's a really positive thing you've done.

So most people returning to the workforce feel a great deal of stress about it from 1 to 3 months, this is normal and will pass. I have seen a lot of people with depression re-enter the workforce. And some people who have had time off for various reasons.

Congrats!! That's awesome. I think the stuff you "forgot" is probably still out there, in your head, it just needs a refresher. I suppose your job involves this kind of task, practice will have it come back to the surface in no time.

I agree with the others, just take it day by day, for now don't worry about six months in the future. :hug:

Congratulations.

Congratulations :) I think that a lot of the information you think you forgot will come back to you quickly after a few days of working. You shouldn't stress about it only being a six moth contract. I'm convinced that if you simply do your best every day you'll be rehired and before you know it you'll have worked there for several years. I wish you all the best!

"What @FridayJones said!"

You care very much and work very hard. Besides that you're smart. What more could they want? Just be YOU and let yourself BE you, and it will be fine.

Congratulations! I was out for a few years and thought I couldn't possibly do the job I was hired for, but I did. It took a little time for me, but I was fine in the long run. The second time I was in this situation, I hit the ground running and rocked the job. Cheers and best of luck in your new job! :) VB
