Tomorrow is my first day back to work after my suicide attempt.

Tomorrow is my first day back at work. I am having major anxiety about facing my team and my friends who I ghosted. I’ve no idea how I am going to look anyone in the eye. My new meds make me pretty much a zombie and numb. Not really sure what tomorrow is going to look like but I know I am dreading it.

Look forward, not backward!

People are more understanding than you think, but your anxiety and feelings are very valid. I bet you get a nice welcome back. 🤗🤗
I can see how that would be incredibly challenging but I’d bet you’ll be met with much kindness. Hope your mental health improves and if the new meds continue to make you feel numb/like a zombie, I’d recommend talking with your doctor as unfortunately it’s often the case of some trial and error before hitting on meds that work best.

I can't imagine having to go through this... any of it, but what strikes me is that you've lived through traumatic life experiences and that is huge, that means you are much stronger than you think. Your value isn’t defined by what happened, it’s in who you are. The people who care about you will be grateful you’re still here, not focused on judging you.

The only thing you deserve is a hug and for them to say, "We are happy you are okay and back with us."

I am glad you are still in this world. The team may or may not understand as individuals. Those who "know," will and be there for you.

Others may be unknowingly or willfully ignorant, but you can do this, I feel. The meds are a tweak away from helping more, I suspect.

I wish you well and peace.
You are still here and that is the important thing.

Haven't been in that situation - but don't be suprised to see them smile and tell you they are glad you're back.

Might even be a hug or two

Sorry that you are going through whatever emotionally that’s causing you to do that 🤐 glad you are surviving but hope you can find a way to feel better and find emotional stability and happiness to enjoy life instead 🤐🥹
Don't worry too much about the fact that you ghosted your team and your friends. It can be a common response when you're as low as you were back then. They should understand that it wasn't personal... it was just a symptom of how bad things were for you at that time.
