Very self-conscious: what would u think?!


Question: Very self-conscious: what would u think.?
I'm a very self-conscious, shy and quiet person and even more so with my colleagues at work. I had to take 2 sick days this week b/c I had a severe asthma attack and was taken to the hospital. I returned to work on Wednesday (I teach), but felt worse as the day went on. Thursday I went in but didn't feel good and had my head down. When my boss and a few of my colleagues saw, they wanted to check up on me and, as I tried to hold back tears, I told them I felt worse. I could tell I was on the verge of tears. At one point, I started to cry and buried my head as I rested it on the table. I feel so embarrassed for crying and having them see me on the verge of tears. I tried to teach the next 2 periods but on my break, I knew I couldn't make it through the rest of the day, so my boss drove me home. No one was home but I told him I'd be ok. I called my boss later that day to tell him I couldn't come in the next day. Told him the doc gave me a cortisone shot and told me to stay home b/c I still wasn't well.

I'm very self-conscious - what would you think about me if you were my boss or colleague.?Health Question & Answer
