Returning To Work Today

[sclarwson]

I am returning to work today, I have only been gone for a week but I am having alot of anxiety thinking about going back. Today is also the one week anniversary of my friends death. I am a CNA and work with veterans some that also have PTSD. I am scared and anxious about returning. Any tips on how to handle this stressful day are greatly appreciated.

I have been where you are ((((((HUGS))))))

My tips are take it slowly.

Think about asking for support if you need it. Remember to take 5 minutes to make a drink or go for a walk..... and breathe.

Take a lunch break away from work if at all possible. Reward yourself at the end of the day.

Good luck.
