Nowhere To Turn

How long were you on ADs for previous? are you back on the same ones? It takes 4-8 weeks for ADs to get into your system, love, it’s not an instant cure, I’m afraid.

As for work, the doctor is limited to how they can help and signing you off may have given you time to weigh up your options. From their point of view, getting on top of the depression with ADs can help you manage work issues better. In terms of the practicalities, an organisation like Citizens Advice www.citizensadvice.org.uk May be able to help you understand your rights and what you are able to do to help with it

Yes I'm back on the same ones I was on five years ago. I know what you are saying and thanks. Staying away from work I think will make things worse, the feeling of dread won't go away Thanks for the ca link.
