how do i overcome this?

Hi missladeebird,

It sounds as if you need to see your GP and that you are responding to the stress of your mother dying. Your gp should be able to plan with you, possible treatment for the panic attacks and a sensible strategy for returning to work.

I would say that you also need to talk to your head, explain how difficult you find things and negotiate a sensible return to work strategy.

As a last resort, your union should be able to provide back up if negotiations prove tricky, but also telephone support services (which I gather are also available from mac).

Hope this helps - know when to be strong and when to let the emotions go,

Adam
