I’m Feeling Really Sick Today, but i Have an Important Deadline at Work. i Don’t Want to let my Team Down, but i’m Struggling to Focus. What Should i do?

I’m so sorry you’re feeling unwell while facing work pressures. Please know that your health matters more than any deadline. Your body is sending you an important message that it needs rest. If possible, consider talking to your supervisor about adjusting expectations – most reasonable employers understand that illness affects performance. If you must work, try breaking tasks into tiny steps, taking frequent breaks, and staying hydrated. Remember: being responsible doesn’t mean pushing through at all costs. The world won’t end if you need to slow down today. You’re not letting anyone down – you’re human. Be as kind to yourself as you would be to a sick friend in this situation.
