Thanks for asking. NO! I'm not ready to go back to
work, & believe me I know the clock is ticking
(seems to be ticking faster & faster). I saw my
pdoc yesterday and her sage advice was to "just
do it." Wasn't there an advertisement with that
jingle in it? Seriously, I am very anxious about
returning. Forget anxious, I'm frightened of it.
I'm afraid of:
1) oversleeping & being late
2) missing days
3) stress, my ability to handle it, & my performance
4) the reactions of co-workers (being labeled a 'head case')
5) the entire corporate game, where middle management
personnel are the first to be sent to the firing
line & the most convenient to blameAh, I'm ranting. I'd rather be a skilled craftsman
and make violins or something.I'm down to 10mg Celexa now, should be 0 by the
end of the week. I just added Wellbutrin to my
med cocktail today. I had taken it several years
ago with some benefit. At least I'll be free of
the dreaded SSRI's & their side effects.How are you doing Judith? I forget where you live,
but we're back to rain & T-storms and lower temps
after a week or so of sunny warm weather here in
Pa.Take Care My Friend,
