Why do I always seem to panic when I am at work It only seems to be when I'm stressed.How can I stop it...... I don't have a melt down or anything I just seem to rush and try to finish what I am doing so I can  move on to the next tasks then I make mistakes (well I think I'm making mistakes)   . I feel  now that people may think that I cant cope  I am starting to feel inadequate, especially around younger work colleques, It sounds crazy, I know.. I just feel like I am a child I don't seem to have confidence around them and I have children the same age .Any advice would be good.

Many thanks

Well I think it's normal cause I stress and panic at work. I also feel like a child. I wish I had the answer on how not to stress! I don't want to be so stressed but I think the world has gotten out of hand which makes it complicated and hard not to be stressed. I do pray and hope it gets better for you! I'm resting in my car on lunch I am soooooo tired 😴. BIG HUGS💛

Hi there, I agree work stress is alot to deal with especially these days as you say. When I was working, I used to escape to my car at lunchtimes too x

I can say that 90 % of the reason i had a full anxiety crisis was due to stress at work plus other things. I worked on hyper speed multitasking & like a robot. To the point where my vision was impaired & jumping (that was the first symptom i had) i almost ended up in a psychiatric hospital er. my dr told me to take weeks off from work after my crisis which i didnt. But i did set an ultimatum & boundaries & told them what i couldnt handle anymore & they accomodated. Im now working at my pace one thing at a time. And if they dont like it tough. Im not burning myself out like that again. Set ur limits and if they cant bend look for another job. No job is worth ur health. Nothing for that matter.

Stop and take some deep breaths. Breath in hold it and breath out, then maybe make a hot drink.
