Arrrgh!  Don't say that!  They'll cancel the holidays altogether if they think people can't cope afterwards.

Back to work a shock for many
10:10AM Thursday January 04, 2007

The reality of 2007 is starting to set in for many of us now heading back to the office.
There is increasing concern our mental health may go out the window as we start to deal with the daily stresses of emails and work.

The Mental Health Foundation's issued a raft of advice to help people cope. These include tips like bringing in photos of loved ones to help get you through the day, as well as decorating the office with flowers.

But chief executive Judi Clements says it is not a "one size fits all policy". She says it is about each individual finding their own way of coping.

Judi Clements says it is actually a serious problem. She says if people start to feel moody for a while after Christmas it may actually be a sign of depression and if it persists, they should consult their GP.

Judi Clements says we need to ease ourselves back into work rather than being swamped straight away.
