I had a meltdown Friday , I had been to a suicide funeral and working huge days , and two days later (Friday ) I just froze . The lights seemed so bright and people seemed too loud and fast . I’m a teacher . I couldn’t process anything or answer questions , my brain felt scrambled and i felt overwhelmed and scared . I sorted
Someone to cover me and went home . Today is better than yesterday which was anxiety and tearfulness . But I’m still pretty anxious with shallow breathing and not sure if I should go to work tomorrow . I teach high school and you sort of have to be at your best , I’m worried if I go I’ll not be able to handle it again . So first, advice on that please , and secondly how long is it gonna take to get back to my normal ? I really thought a day or two of de stressing and reducing stimulation would sort it out . Now I’m shame spiralling because I’m still feeling really tense and uptight . Thanks in advance !
