It sounds like you were really burned out and your body and mind needed to shut down to recover. It is so so easy to not talk and shut yourself away, it is similarly so hard to talk to others and not feel like a burden, I get that. I always tell other people it is best to talk about struggles with other people and not keep it bottled up - but then find it hard to actually do this myself. I am great at giving advise but not actually putting it into practice myself. I think you have said the same is true for yourself. I guess that is the anxiety in action. I am really happy you are reaching out and feel better again, and you shared your experiences in this post.
BigÂÂ man, good to have you back!
Thanks Si, yeah I am a prime example of giving advice but not listening to my own! My friends at work have also repeatedly said how I always help others there no matter how busy I am yet never ask for help myself. It just seems so hard to ask for it.
