Hey all,
Bit of a long winded one sorry, but just after some general advice/opinions.
For context, last year I had a seizure at work (first I’d ever had) I was put off for a few months while I gained clearance to return to work. I’ve been back for 6 months now, and I am really struggling with anxiety and panic attacks while at work. I’m not allowing it to affect my duties, but it is exhausting trying to work while not being in a good headspace. I saw my GP for a mental health plan and was put on medication to help but it hasn’t elevated much pressure from me, my GP recommends taking stress leave but I feel distancing myself from work will only make things worse on my return.
My question is, would you look for another job? Or would you try to work through your personal issues and stay? I love my team and I love my role, so I am constantly stuck between leaving and staying. Would just like to hear others thoughts on this.
TLDR : I had a seizure at work and now I am having panic attacks at work, I don’t know whether to stay or leave.
