sickness and work

I am after some advise please.
I am dyslexic and disprasic. Spelling is normally the only issues that effects me, as I work hard and am determined. I give 100% (i have to, to keep up) but i dont mind. I started a new job in febuary and have been moved to differnt team 3 times and my role has changed due to restructuring. I am not picking things up, work have given me some extra supprt but i am still strugling. I have been going in early, work threw my lunch and staying late but I still cant keep up.

I have a lot of personal issue at home and this effecting me at work. I have been signed of on the sick by my doctor as i am not sleeping have lost over 2 stone and have started with panic attacks. I want to get some control/ I think chanaging the job I do is the best way. But I don't want to find myself in another job where i cant handle the pressure. What should I do? I have an apoinmnet to see the occupational health person at work and am stressing about that

  • Maybe work out what you want to do, and if you feel you could do it? as in, fits in with your skills. Look for something less stressful

    There are lots of things I would love to do, but just don't have the skills and knowledge to do them unfortunately

    BTW your spelling is fine, I can understand you perfectly.
    With love, POSR <3
