I dont know what to do

I was managing my anxiety very well, i even ended up getting a new job. I thought this would help tremendously with my anxiety seeing as my last job caused a lot of anxiety. But it seems like the opposite is happening, this new job is worse & i am living in an anxiety state of mind constantly. So I’ve tried looking for a new job, i found a potential one but they happen to hair drug test you, which i will admit i know i wont pass. So now i just don’t know what to do. Sorry for the rambling or if none of this makes sense

I give you credit for managing your anxiety well. You need to get yourself back to that state and out of your current.

Where it was at first is much better off then now. From going through that shows the strength you have to get over all this anxiety.

For the moment it seems one thing after another keeps getting in your way of getting back to square one. Where you are in control. Sometimes going back is better then going forward at times such as yours.

Bring your mind, body and spirit to where it was at the times of positivity. Where managing it was not an issue for you.

That point and time seems to be your strongest point. Now it’s best to use those capabilities and use them to your advantage rather then to the anxiety’s advantage and you take over.

Stay strong. 😊
