Hi, guys, i got a job. And i have survived the first day. The company is good and location is good, and a lot of things are good about the company. But i don't know yet if i manage...it was very hectic, and i feel dead now...I hope i will learn ...and catch up...and they will be happy with me. I was very-very-very scared...did not sleep all night before this first day. I still feel shaken and very tired. I am excited and anxious at the same time.

thank you to everyone, who was thinking of me today. It worked!!!

Love you all.

I know that feeling! Congratulations on getting through the first day! I did the same thing, I didn’t sleep at all the night before my first day. I never do. One day at a time

yes, thank you, one day at a time...i am so overwhelmed not sure i will be sleeping this night. But thank you for reminding me: one day at a time. because i have thoughts rushing thru my mind...i have to slow down in order to fall a sleep.

I’m the same way. I have to constantly refocus on one day at a time. Easier said than done.

it is nice to feel understood, really. I am already critical of myself, i got stuck with 1 task and i got to the bottom of it, but it took longer than i wanted it to be. No one said a word, but my own internal judge is criticizing me already.

[Hidden in reply to morenews]

Oh yes that’s me too. I obsess and doubt myself. I literally had visions of myself collapsing on the floor in panic and everyone staring at me lol. Our worst fears are never what really happens.

you know i have read now a few of your posts. one was about exercising...and i am going to exercise now for 30 mins...it usually helps ...not too intense, i am using you tube ...and i have some issue with my foot, so i do exercises on a chair program, which is for people with injured foot. But it helps me to feel better mentally and it might help me now relax, and i would feel i did something for myself.

Oh yes. Adding exercise into your life is free medicine and it boosts our energy and confidence. Good idea!

Well done, you sound so positive, I give myself a month to settle into new job, baby steps, go for it xxx

[morenews in reply to Florida1959]

Thank you, yes, trying to remember about baby steps. I do expect too much of myself after just 1 day.

[Florida1959 in reply to morenews]

We all beat out selves up, it’s the pressure we put on ourselves, causing the anxiety, you will be fantastic xxx

Thank you. Accounting. I have to survive... don’t feel very good yet, just surviving one day at a time.

[gogogirl]

Well , that is quite an accomplishment- and with a professional that is in demand.
