    i think i think and analyse stuff too much :o ............................ i also think this behaviour is part of my alcoholism ?? :confused: ....

    everything wass going fine untill 20 mins ago :eek:
    (at the time of typing this it was 20mins ago...
    but its took me over an hour to type this post) :rolleyes:

    i attended my return to work assessment last night....
    and thought things went so-so......
    even got to thinking that it will do me some good to get back to
    real life stuff and get me back on track.....
    into the real world and feeling needed somewere else
    not just at home.........
    went to my meeting today..... got there before it started :rolleyes:
    even spoke for about 20-25 mins..........
    it was a first time for someone.... so the personal shares were quite long....
    had a good meeting.. even gave a hand with the tidying up...........

    hadnt heard a dicky bird from work so see if i
    can go back or not......
    so i rang my manager.........

    she wants to refer me to occupational health & to a higher manager icon9.gif

    which is fine by me........ except...........

    (this is were my thinking too much comes into it)

    that may ask for me to grant permission for the doc
    to release my medical literature :eek: :eek: :eek:

    so now im panicing...........

    1 hr later.......................

    my 'calm head' :rolleyes: is thinking.......

    surely the doc can just duplicate the notes that they need....
    and not others stuff. :confused:
    and........
    they cant do anything without my permission.......
    i have a dr's appt on the 29th.... even occy health dont
    move THAT quickly.... i can have a word with doc before
    i make a desicion...........


    other than that im good :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :A :A

    welcome to an alcoholics word ;):o

    the medical stuff is just why you were on the sick in the first place your neck

    they cant give personal stuff its to see if your fit for work try not to worry babes have a word with him even a job not allowed full access to your records dont panick you were working there wen u were drinking they had no prob didnt know you are not now so you are in an even stronger position

    glad your meeting went well hang in there:grouphug:
