Struggling

[chichi021909]

Having major, major anxiety from a new job. I apologize for any one who is looking for a job, not trying to be insensitive, just having bad panic right now. Very overwhelmed and afraid.

It will be okay take a deep breath and try to relax. If you need to chat I'll be on here. I hope this panic attack passes quickly.

I really appreciate you taking the time to respond and your kind words. I just got home, I will pray for a better day tomorrow. Thanks so much again.

Chichi021909: how long have you been there? Does your employer have an EAP? How is your support system locally?

Change/new things are very anxiety provoking for me as well. I find CBT and DBT skills to be helpful- cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectal behavioral therapy (you may want to get a book or look for resources online). I also take medication and see a therapist.

Thanks so much for the advice, I'm on meds and am currently seeking a therapist.
