Sunday afternoon and Monday mornings.. tend to be my hardest times. My anxiety creeps in until it tries to over run my system.
I have weekends off work and go back each Monday. I generally like my work too. But I hate this feeling. I hate the hot flush and the sudden pounding in my temples.
Does this happen to everyone..?

My boss is really good, as is the senior manager. I work at a small business in a small town, so they want to keep me working there. Plus I'm friends with a lot of the customers we get, so I don't think they'd get away with screwing me over because of my mental health. Apart from one duty manager, everyone I work with is very supportive. It doesn't make my anxiety any less, but I know if I have a freak out at work I won't be penalised for it.

@AliL @I’m glad they’re supportive. I get it. My anxiety is there regardless of other people and their kindness. But I’m grateful just the same
