30.4 be coming back (past continuous)

30.4.1 Helen is talking to her friend Jonathan about why she changed her job.

Jonathan: Why did you leave your job? I thought you really liked it.

Helen: I did like it, but it was just too busy. I didn't have time for a social

life. I was getting really stressed and it started to affect my health.

Jonathan: In what way?

Helen:  I  started  to  get  really  bad  headaches  and  my  hair  started  to  fall

out!

Jonathan: Oh no. That's terrible.

Helen: At first I took a vacation and the symptoms got better, but after I

returned to work, the symptoms were coming back so I decided I needed

to quit.

Jonathan: I see. So is your new job less stressful?

Helen: Yes, much. I'm much happier now.
