Tight knot in my stomach

[fortress777]

I have been out of work due to illness, some of which was mental for ten years, Start work tomorrow and I am making myself ill for the worry . I can't breath.

I am confident you can do it! It is natural to be nervous in this situation! It will be ok!!! 😊

Chubbers is right..its natural that you were nervous starting a new job... think of it as excitement!! Good luck and let us know how it went! Don't be too hard on yourself, ok?? ok!!

I agree, I think this is normal for anyone starting a new job!! Just try to break it down into little sections... Good luck, Im sure you will be fine xx

Survived my first day at work, it was long and there is a lot to learn. I am taking one day at a time one section at a time, plus I want to leave at the front door and concentrate on relaxing things. Thank you for your replies.

How are you getting on at work. I find getting to work every day a struggle.

But once I am here I am okay.

I did one day of training and came home and a bit of a meltdown. There just seems to be so many things to learn and remember and I don't know if I am up to the task.

Works getting better but it was such a mental shift getting up everyday and meeting people. No hiding under the duvet and shutting the world out if I feel down.
