Stress, anxiety and trying to look for a new job

@Alissa01m

The biggest mistake i see people making over and over is talking themselves out of trying. people stay at unhappy jobs that not only drain them but IMO is bad for your health when you internalize the dislike for job.

You made up your mind to TRY and to apply for something else you are already ahead of most .... not sure how you are looking but if using an app like for example Indeed etc just apply to all that sound interesting even if you are not 100% sure....

i did not apply for a job once the description sounded above my skill level ........................ I had a friend ( worked as a recruiter) who called me said "will you go to an interview probably not your thing BUT i get credit sending a person " ....... before i started my car after the interview ...... they said YES we want her.... it was the same job i doubted myself on.

Be bold be brave and go for it may take time but like i said you are already ahead of those who are in same shoes but Afraid to act

What are the things you need to do to get a new job? Build your resume? Work on it with a friend! Apply for jobs? Go to a coffee shop with a friend and apply for jobs! Sometimes if I do tasks or chores I need to do with a friend it's helpful.. it's like a accountability buddy

Sometimes the idea of the goal at hand can be a lot more overwhelming and cause stress because in the grand scheme of things, yes it is a big task ahead! It's understandable that this crossroads will be very stressful but let it sit in your mind for a bit and see if its something you'd really want to do. Hoping for the best and keep us updated!

Thanks for all the replies. It gives me some courage and ideas. I'm glad I left my message here.

T_T I will continue work on finding a new job. It will take some time.

Wish me luck!
