Returning to work after caring for family - first time posting

I stepped out for 9 months to care for a family member and now want to return. It has been a long 21 weeks. I have been taking an online course. What helped?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 9 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I began with part-time temp work, which helped me get back into the rhythm.
