Do it.
You should absolutely ask for the sick day. Better to take the time and put your health first than sit and stare at your computer all day feeling miserable. If working a few hours from home is an option, you could ask to do that too
Thanks for the advice everyone. I went to the gym this morning and called a friend so I think I can manage, but it’s good to know that mental health days are okay to take sometimes :)
If you don't wanna use a sick day, you can go to work to use the gym? That usually makes me feel better and healthier bc I don't have to talk to anyone and can listen to music.
Mental Health Days are sooo important but I do urge you to get outside and do something! Even just going for a walk helps ease me out of that feeling a bit.
Self care is so important. Take care of yourself, and management should understand that it’s for your benefit and theirs to take those days as needed.
Mental health days should absolutely be ok. There are no such things as audit emergencies!
Take it
Ask? Usually a sick day is hey I'm sick I'm not coming in
