I know I did well to get through two weeks ago (on previous post) but it's after the event that I suffer most.

I'd just gotton over having meltdowns as my reaction to stress and it's set me back so much. Now when something stresses me I'm back to just shutting down and I can't communicate. I have trouble thinking and even things like reading are too hard when I'm in that state. Basically I was doing OK until they decided to push me too far and now I don't feel like I can cope with anything.

I've spent my two weeks holidays recovering from work and I feel cheated. I have to go back to work tomorrow and I'm dreading it. I'm scared of being put into a situation that I can't deal with, and not being able to communicate my way out of it.

Every time I think I'm nearly over it, something sets me back again and I'm getting fed up. Regardless of what I think, my body has been in such an anxious state for the past couple of weeks that now I'm completely exhausted.

Does this ever go away?
