I suffered a major and severe mental breakdown about 4 years ago and have relapsed in recent weeks, probably due to stress at work. Through the dedication of my partner, family and the community mental health team, I am already on the road to recovery. I have told the colleagues I worked with about my breakdown and they were all incredibly supportive. I hope to return to work soon. However I think I need to admit to myself that it is okay to have mental health problems. Unfortunately I hide this too well sometimes even to myself.

Don't feel ashamed of being human
humans have “situations” with mental health all the time and everywhere. Good luck to you!
Good on you for being open and honest with your colleagues, that must have taken a lot of courage. I agree that there is no reason for you to feel ashamed, it sounds like you handled the situation admirably.
