mrsharrypotter – (great name! I’m a Harry Potter fan myself) Actually my anxiety was quite problematic at the office. I’m a receptionnist/telephonist, and whenever I’d get an agressive caller I’d have an anxiety attack. I mean I totally lost it… crying, shaking, heart pounding, breathing difficulties,…They had to isolate me at the infirmery local for a about half an hour or so each time till I regained control of myself, calmed down, and was able to go back to my work. After my last attack last autumn, the person responsible for health and well being of the employees was so concerned about it all that she decided to put me on sick leave… but my doctor refused to sign the paper saying it was a work related problem to be solved/dealt with by the employer. So I had to go back. But my employer took me off the phone for a week or so and arranged for me to get the help of a coach for a few weeks. I really felt that the people helping me were genuinely concerned about me. I really appreciated their help and concern. Still do.
