It is common to feel confused and do not know what to say to the doctor to get stress leave by the time your work-related stress has escalated to the need of stress leave, and the worker often has lots of built-up emotions, thoughts, feelings, and anxiety.
Doctors can help to treat your mental stress, anxiety, or depression. It is best if you are honest and upfront to your doctor when talking about your stress and psychological injury and make sure all the circumstances arising from your work related stress are documented. Doctors are there to help you to get better.
