Guilty as charged: fatigue at work

Hello everyone, I'm currently at work and am having major fatigue problems. I can't walk up the stairs and even typing this note is taking a helluva lot of energy. I had to lie down at work today because I refuse to go home. I feel guilty everytime I leave work early and I guess I was wondering whether anyone felt this way at work. It's not as if they are forcing me or anything but it's a self-placed guilt. I know when I get home I'm going to lie down and not work. I've just come back from a long sick leave and I was hoping to come back fresh and ready but I don't feel fresh. In fact to be truthful I feel weary and guilty for feeling that way. Just thought I'd vent and was wondering whether anyone felt that way? Can you give any advice?

<a href='https://shift.ms/community/people/mschronic/' rel='nofollow'>@MSChronic</a>, Yes, I can provide some advice. This is not self-inflicted, it's not something you drunk, inhaled or shot up. So, you're not to blame. So, give up the guilt trip and be nice to yourself. Sorry this is short and terse, but the message is heartfelt. :)

Hi <a href='https://shift.ms/community/people/mschronic/' rel='nofollow'>@mschronic</a> I understand this feeling completely, but as <a href='https://shift.ms/community/people/Stumbler/' rel='nofollow'>@Stumbler</a> so rightly says, it's nothing you've done, its just how you feel, and that is what makes you, you. If others were to feel this way about you, it would be their problem and I'm guessing they don't, this is not a problem you should be worried about- you've enough on your plate lovely- chin up, so you're back at work (a bit too soon by the sounds of it) and maybe the weekend will help, if it doesn't don't be afraid to admit it. x rest your head and try not to worry yourself with 'would's' and 'could's' Feel free to use my mantra of 'Fuck this Shit' which seems to work best of all x
