Although financially it's vital that I get back to work as soon as possible, psychologically it's a whole different ball game. I remember friends after the first lockdown feeling as if they had lost their mojo and genuinely feeling like they didn't know if they could still actually do their jobs. I feel a bit like I am trying to get back on a roundabout that's already spinning. I want to get on, I need to get on but everything just feels too fast for me. I am trying to make my own roadmap back to work and fully functioning but it's so tricky when we are not yet allowed to do some simple things that would help with a transition back to normality.
