      I got a small part time job. It’s only sixteen hours a week but it will boost my confidence and get me back in the work place.
      Small steps…

      Amazing news, congratulations!
      I can totally relate to the confidence thing, I didn’t realise I’d lost it until being more and more away from him and feeling more and more confident about little things that I hadn’t even noticed I wasn’t confident about.
      Good luck and enjoy – I’m sure you will be fab 😘 x

      This is fantastic. A huge step. Something I hope to achieve one day. I loved my job. Human contact and the social side too. Was made to give it up. Onwards and upwards x 👍

      Congratulation Fudgecake, I’m very pleased for you, well done 👍🤗 it’s so good to start part-time, it gives you the best side of both worlds, the benefits of working and enough time to rest.
      Tell yourself you love yourself how you are right now each morning before going to work, center into yourself and breathe, it helped me last time I was working and nervous. Also each time I went to toilets, I told myself, you are doing really well honey, I’m proud of you. That helped 🙂
      Wishing you an excellent start, you’ll be fine, you’ll see. 😘

      Back from first day of work and totally knackered lol. I’m out of practice with working and was very anxious. People were great tho and it was nice to be with normal people again. I was isolated for so long it felt weird talking to people again.

      I’m so pleased for you Fudgecake, you made it. yes! It will only get easier from now on, the socialising, the working, everything will be ok, it’s like riding a bicycle, you don’t unlearn it even if at the beginning you are a bit out of practice 🚲
      It is very exhausting to work again so make sure you get more than plenty enough of sleep and keep hydrated.
      I’m so happy for you, well done 👍💖
