Anxiety about returning to work ....

irons633 · December 2013

I'm so anxious about returning to work on Wednesday. I'm scared and very nervous about it. Even though last year I had to endure this but it's like a double whammy of having to do this again around the same time of year. I'm just not in the mood of dealing with the awkwardness of people as well as me having to be strong for others when they are in a crisis ( 911 operator). I'm hoping and praying that the jobs I have applied for something comes thru by the beginning of the year. I need to be somewhere else where I don't have the reminders of being pregnant, people knowing I was pregnant. I just miss my babies so much and knowing that this was supposed to be my last week of work to prepare for Olivia's arrival as well when I return to work it will two months that I said goodbye to her. And if returning to work wasn't hard enough I received in the mail the other day my newborn starter formula. Like can I just get a break??!!!
I'm just on an emotional roller coaster and just ready for something to not make me feel just so sad and anxious. Hugs to all of you ladies during this holiday season!!!

((Hugs)) I will be thinking of you and praying your first day back goes as well as possible. Take it slow, if possible, and be gentle with yourself.

I will be keeping my fingers crossed that you get a call for a new job soon! Being in a place that is constantly reminding you of milestones is so difficult (Not that we ever forget in the first place!) I hope your return goes smoothly and without any issues. Lots of thoughts for a calm and restful night tonight, and a peaceful first day back tomorrow.

My thoughts are with you as you prepare for work tomorrow. I know how it is because I felt the same anxiety when I returned to work. The anticipation, I can say, was definitely worse than the actual day. So it might be so bad after all! Keep your head up.

Thank you ladies so much!!! I have some bedtime tea I'll take tonight to help me sleep because I'm so anxious. I do hope that the actual day is easier than what I'm thinking in my head.
