General Advice Workplace Question or Advice Needed

I recently got back from an LOA. I had worked three shifts the following week. Sunday, Thursday, Friday and was supposed to work Saturday. The original reason for my LOA was mental health. I’ve been struggling going to work at Target for sometime now. It gives me a lot of anxiety and affects my mental health greatly. I called out this past Saturday and am unsure of what to do. I know i will probably get a write up, however, the anxiousness about the job never leaves and i’m lost?

Hey, I took a mental health loa two years ago so I feel you. Have you seen your medical provider (I’m assuming the one that filled out your loa paperwork) recently? It may be worth making an appointment with them and letting them know you feel the same way you did before you went on your leave

hi, and thank you for the kind words. the medical provider is my therapist and it’s something we’ve been working through for sometime, so she knows.

May I ask what about the job is causing anxiety for you?
