Anxiety

My fear and anxiety got the best of me I think the other day with work. I don’t know how to best handle it to where I don’t get so stressed out and work up about work. It has been causing me a bad headache for a day now and I passed out due to I think the extreme stress. What can I do? Thankfully someone was with me when I passed out to help me and I am fine now, but it terrified me.

I'm sorry that you're having such awful anxiety about work.  Is there something specific that makes you so anxious?  Too much work?  Feeling unsure about your tasks or your abilities?  Is it a certain person there that is bothering you?

I understand how you feel about anxiety at work, anxiety at work is something that a lot of people will have at some point or another in their lives. Passing out sounds terrifying especially when doing so due to a headache and possibly extreme stress. Was there something that triggered this anxiety? Could you identify what that was and mayhaps avoid it in the future? Do you have a good support base at work? Could it be worth telling your line manager about this to see if they can help? There are lots of options available for you. You're also always welcome to speak to a member of our Listening Team here at 7Cups and we are all happy to listen any way that we can.

Kindest Regards and Best Wishes,
