Returning to Work

Returning to work should, initially, be discussed with your employer. If you work in an office it may be helpful to just attend for a couple of hours, daily, just doing the filing or some other non-demanding role.  If this is not possible, consider getting a voluntary job for a few hours each day.  It may be possible to do a little voluntary work, if your Doctor will vouch for it being 'For therapeutic purposes' without losing any Benefit you may be receiving, but you should discuss this with your Benefit Office.

Once again, it is important to explain to your employer what you are trying to achieve and how you plan to go about it.  If it was your job that caused the stress in your life may be this is the time to downshift.
