Nervous about jobs or changes.
When it comes to jobs or changes I get overwhelmed all at once. I don't know why I feel a bit lost and anxiety.
Someone can talk about their bad experiences they have at the job, people being mean to them, someone changing my job, or my job moving me. I immediately panic and feel the urge to run away or quit.
I can not even force myself to apply for other jobs.
I have been laid off 3 times. Any suggestions why I feel this way?

It must be so hard to go through 3 times laid off. We are in a difficult time in human history. These experiences may influence your self-confidence. When you interact with other people or try to find a new job, worries are by your side, and that causes anxiety. Finding the right reference point, building up self-confidence may help. Wish things go well for you.

Thanks, I will try to build up self-confidence. Good advice.

I totally understand. I'm in a bad situation at work at the moment too. It's important to remember, I've found, that work doesn't define who you are. The status, the colleagues etc are all illusions. Ok - we've all got to earn a living but it isn't who you *are*. Be confident that you've got friends and networks who know and respect you and who can help you find the right path that's right for you - something that you're going to enjoy and be great at.
