Messed up
Messed up
I am overwhelmed with everything going on so I was just thinking: I need to take a mental health day today. Even though I have a bunch of things on my work to-do list, I may just skip work today. But I started feeling very weird and guilty about this idea. Is it okay to take a mental health day? The idea has never occured to me before and its certainly not something Ive ever done, not consciously anyway. I pondered this for a few minutes.
Then suddenly I realized that this whole line of questioning was insane. Why? Because it is Sunday AND Im actually sick, as in physical ache and pain in my body due to some stupid bug. And despite all that, the only "excuse" I could come up with for not working was a "mental health day"!
I think this just answered my question: I am definitely due for a mental health day.
