Yes, it definitely would have helped. I had to go back to work a few days after my daughter's body was found, just to make ends meet. If I could have stopped working back then, I may have been able to access resources. When you have to keep working, it is very hard to access resources and to continue receiving the support you need to help you get your life back on track. I think it is important to take time off so the measure is effective in helping you rebuild your life.
