So, I am only working Friday thru Sunday, but, I am so afraid to go to work. Once I get to work I am great, but, the idea of work is frustrating and scary. I am having full on panic attacks about the prospect.

I feel that way about driving! It is nervewracking! Its always the beginning that’s hard, isn’t it?

Is this your first few days at work… that’s quite normal when you start a new job… That feeling will pass trust me.

I wish I had an idea or some great advice.

The people hired you because you are qualified… I have a feeling that you’ll be just fine at the job.

I know that does help the anxiety about it all…

What will you be doing at your job?

Yes, it’s those first few agonizing minutes when I am unsure how to proceed. I am afraid I won’t get it right.

I am baking bread (something I am great at) but, it’s a new technique, New to me equipment with new people.

It is kind of scary in the beginning - before you start.

Once you are there working, things will get better for you.

If for some reason it does not work for you, you can always get another job - best of luck to you @samples32

I’m sure they will teach you.

It doesn’t help small businesses to not support the employees.

You have a good skill… I bet you’ll get the equipment mastered pretty quickly.

Those first few days might be nerve wracking… the people who hired you sound nice.

The manager does seem nice. His mother is a sweetheart. Did I mention I am working at schlotzkys? That is part of the trouble, very fast paced.

Wow… that sounds like a bigger bakery.

I’m glad the owners are nice.

It’s not a bakery, it’s fast food…

with each time you go into work it will get easier. you’ll feel comfortable with it in time, hopefully soon as can be.

it is worth it. it gives a person a sense of self-worth and often much needed $$.

I’m like that every time I shoot a wedding – brides are the most fearsome (and sometimes wretched) creatures on the planet.

Oh, gawd; I remember how p-noid I was about driving or being in public places (or even just outside my room) before I got on Seroquel and did a bunch of CBT & MBCT. I had to just keep on pushing with med compliance and therapy. Now I’m on less than a tenth of the Sq dosage and I have no problem driving or being in public at all.

I get anxious about school and even the gym…I have generalized anxiety disorder. I’m just an anxious and obsessive compulsive person in addition to many other clinically distinct characteristics.

I feel too anxious to even go finish watching a show I have been watching. Like four episodes left and I’m just like nah can’t get the motivation, don’t want to focus, and I’m sitting here having a drink instead.

But what the actual ■■■■. I woke up at 7 went to school at 8 took two exams and got out at noon, then went to grab a bite at chipotle (diet) and then drank green tea and went to the gym, and you all know going to the gym means an insane workout for me. Today was calves, my weakness. Now I just got my hair cut by my mom and showered and now I’m sitting here not even having the motivation to watch episode nine of Spice and Wolf, an anime about a merchant and a wolf god who takes human form and goes everywhere with him.

I don’t want to read anything, ■■■■ reading after taking two exams, and I already worked out, my calves are useless so I can’t use my new jump rope (which is custom made with a weighted cable and in custom length and colors) I just feel like “I don’t want to” anything. Don’t even want to sleep, not time to sleep, don’t need to eat, don’t even want this drink I’m just drinking it to get rid of it and hopefully change my flat mood.

I don’t feel like anything, I feel like an ice cream cone that fell on the asphalt. Just kind of sits there. Wait, I’m like a fungus. I learned about fungi for my exam today. I’m definitely a fungus with a smartphone and a good brain and big muscles sitting back in a recliner drinking Jack Daniels fire, a cinnamon whiskey.

I’ve heard that if you haven’t worked in a while the transition to work can be rough. Hold on. It will get better.
