Anxiety with new job

[ELFRANCO]

Hi

I’ve been feeling very anxious with my new job

I feel that I’m not good enough and I’m not doing my job well

I feel overwhelmed at all the information and data that I have to work with

I know exactly what you mean. When I started my job I felt like I was holding everything up because I knew nothing and I could feel coworkers getting frustrated. Still not sure if that was in my head but that is still something I struggle with everyday

Im in the same situation, I start a new job in 4 days and Im terrified, extremely anxious and feeling impostor syndrome. Its so much more responsibility and an enormous amount of data to remember, I regret accepting the job and already planning my escape when it becomes too stressful..

Since Covid I have to do it with laptop and phone

My boss is the one teaching me what I have to do

This is totally a different part of sales that I never dealt with

Excel sheets and so much data

I feel like I’m failing each day with the tasks he has me doing

My friends tell me that with Covid jobs and even teaching is 10x harder to do

Anxiety has me harder to even look at my e-mails because I what I have to do

Im the opposite, Id love to have a remote job. Being in a desk job, with meetings, is pure hell for me. And I am about to start a job where there is more of that. I hate myself for taking this job and I did only to escape my old job and more money. The fear, anxiety and guilt/anger makes me want to end it all.
