Anxiety all the time
I constantly get scared to do things that should be simple tasks but I literally have to convince myself for and hour that it will be ok before I do it. I hate my job I think it’s just bring me down but I need the money. I never wanted to have a job just for money and not do something I love.
Hey there! I can 100% relate to this. I was once in a very bad situation and work actually helped me gain my sense of purpose back for a while. Now that I work in corporate, it actually gives me terrible anxiety and makes me dread going to work daily. I’m currently struggling with business travel. It gives me anxiety to travel without my family but I know I’ll lose my job if I don’t go.
Yes absolutely. I also get anxiety about traveling even just regular driving gives me anxiety. Going to the grocery store gives me anxiety. It’s become even worse lately because my boyfriend has a big family and he always wants me to go to some family function with him. But with social anxiety I just can always push myself to do it. He has no understanding for anxiety we recently had a huge fight over it because he took it to mean that I hated spending time with his family. But later he started to understand as I explained myself. I feel bad that I just can’t do normal things without having so much stress.
I’m right there with you. The simplest things cause me so much anxiety. And that means the difficult things feel like an impossible mountain to climb. I just discovered I have social anxiety having struggled with it for 40 years. The last few years it has become debilitating. I didn’t know what was wrong. I just knew that I wasn’t happy. And I felt so much stress all of the time. I haven’t found the way out yet. But knowing what it is gives me hope that there is a way.
