How to keep a job with anxiety?

Ive been in and out work since 2013, and within a few weeks ive quit due to my anxiety, and panicking over money (funny enough) and childcare - even when my childcare is sorted. I want to go to work and I want to provide for myself and my son, without relying heavily on beneifts, the doctor wont sign me off long term and I no longer recieve DLA (ended in 2014). I have a 1st stage interveiw for a waitress in a new resturant in Newports new Friars walk. But I dont want to start, benefits stop, and then I quit and struggle until benefits get sorted again! Any advice? Many thanks xx

Hello

If you are suffering with anxiety why will your Doctor not support you and say you are unfit for work at this moment and the near future ?

It seems you have got in a cycle and maybe your anxiety creates the fear you will quit and that is why it keeps happening ?

Have you asked your Doctor to refer you for some Counselling , if the Doctor you see you find is not very understanding have you tried to see another Doctor that might have a better understanding can be in the same surgery

If it were me and I had to go to the interview I would tell them the truth , I might miss out the bit where I keep quitting but I would tell them about my anxiety , it could be that if you tell a potential employer if they decided to take you on they would give you support

Would part time work be an option , you may find this more suitable and not feel under so much pressure

You really do need some support and I would as said go back and see the Doctor

You could also go and have a word with your Local Citizens Advice , they would be really good at knowing where you stood with all this
