A new method from Nav unexpectedly delayed Linn Helen Haug's return to work after her diagnosis of complex PTSD, ultimately leading her to a full-time job.
Linn Helen Haug faced significant challenges when she fell ill before Christmas 2024 due to complex PTSD and burnout. While she wanted to return to work quickly, a new method introduced by Norway's welfare agency, Nav, slowed her recovery process. Despite this delay, it turned out to be beneficial, as it allowed her to address her mental health adequately before entering the workforce again.
The new Nav protocol initially hindered Haug's swift return to her job, prompting feelings of frustration. However, as she progressed through the method, she found it provided a structured approach to piecing her life back together. Colleagues and friends had noticed her struggles even when she wasn't fully aware of them, which reinforced the necessity of this deliberate recovery journey.
Ultimately, the combination of support from the Nav method and the gradual healing process led Linn Helen Haug to regain her footing in her career, allowing her to transition successfully into full-time employment. This case underscores the importance of targeted interventions for mental health challenges and highlights the potential advantages of patience in the recovery process, despite the initial setbacks.
