I've taken almost two weeks off sick from work now due to a tonsillectomy (turns out they take longer to heal than I thought) and now I'm overcome with guilt and anxiety for all those missed days. My coworkers have had to pick up the pieces without me, and I've been so anxious that I couldn't sleep last night and had to go home sick exhausted and with a really disturbed stomach (read: stuck in the bathroom for an hour :( ) I spent all day hating myself and imagining how much they probably hate me, and at this point I'm waiting for 2 benedryl to kick in because I desperately need sleep. Hopefully writing this out makes me feel better... Does anyone else have this particular kind of work anxiety?
