Oh man, you’re dealung woth some very heavy emotions right now… Please take the time you need to heal a bit. For me, the distraction of work is a nice respite from grief, but you do what you need. sending love💚

i had a similar issue when my mom died. it’ll get easier eventually <3 hope you are well

Sending you love and peace hang in there.

First of all, I am very sorry for the loss of your mother.
You are grieving. If you can afford it, take a LOA and allow yourself to heal. Use Lyra (I think that’s still applicable?) for help. Work is distracting, but so is going for a walk, reading a book, hanging out with friends. It’s okay to stay in bed too! Just don’t stay too long. Find someone you can trust to check in on you every so often and make sure you’re eating and showering!!! I hope I’m not overstepping but I didn’t want to eat or go out of the house after my mom and dad died and it really did help just to see a text from someone. Again, I’m really sorry and I wish you healing….

Do not come in to work no matter how much you're asked to until you are ready. Take the time to mourn and heal. My condolences to you.

My deepest condolences ♥️ don’t go back to work until you are ready. I made the mistake of continuing to go to work because I wanted to be distracted but a few months later it took a big toll on me. I never gave myself the chance to grief and it because so overwhelming. If you have insurance get therapy or this Lyra if that helps. Seeking help can sometimes feel like your a burden but trust me it’s not. If you feel down reach out to a friend. If you don’t feel comfortable reach out to me. We don’t know each other but I will most certainly be there if you need a listening ear. May god give you strength.

I’m so sorry for your loss, sending prayers ❤️❤️

Lyra is still a thing, reach out of you need it OP! It can be really hard to grt back into working after something so difficult happens. Don't rush and take care of yourself ♡♡♡
