I’ve been on a medical LOA since last year and tomorrow I go back to work and I keep thinking about how almost all my coworkers I knew are gone and processes have changed. Also that if I do something wrong I might injure myself again and be right back where I was a year ago (I have been cleared for full job duties by my doctor).
Honestly, I’m not an overthinker any more, or at least I don’t see myself as an overthinker since atomoxetine is doing its magic. But in other circumstances, I would be thinking about this Meta thing, and about what people would think if I wrote this comment, and about why I screwed things up so much in the past…
I think that last one is probably one of the most common ones for many people.
