Hi newtosobriety,
Way to go on 20 days! That's huge. It sounds like you're overwhelmed with some things, and you have my sympathy. I had a brief bout with sciatica and it's extremely painful, I know.
Are you able to get an extension on the time off? Even though your sick bank is depleted, is there a central sick bank you can draw from? It sounds as though your job has caused considerable anxiety before - what will you do if this is the case when you go back? Are you 'white knuckling' your sobriety, or do you have a plan in place for your recovery? It's really important that you fill your life - the areas that were filled with drink before, I mean.
You've done so well to get this far - please continue to take good care of yourself. Keep posting - would love to hear from you again.
