Job stress
I started my first job a few days ago and I need to deal with many angry and disrespectful customers. It makes me really anxious and hard to relax at night. I'm overthinking everything and I'm scared to meet the people again. I'm aware that such people can happen in every job but It doesn't change the fact that I can't really deal with the emotions 😭

Hi there! First, I wanted to congratulate you on starting your first job. That's fantastic! Such a big step. I'm sorry to hear you've had a rough transition though. Sounds like this environment has been pretty stressful for you.
It sounds like a big stressor in particular is dealing with angry customers. I can imagine that must be very draining. It's easy sometimes to take people's criticisms personally. Sometimes, if we step back and reflect, we might see that there must be a lot going on in someone's life for them to lash out in such a way. In doing so, we can put into perspective that perhaps their anger isn't so personal after all.
You're so strong for dealing with this stress. Know that you are not alone, and there's support around every corner here. Please be well and take care.
Love and light 💛
