Can’t hold a job

SANsan — Wed, 05 Dec 2018 10:50:38 GMT

Recently, I have been struggling to hold a job. I get really anxious and second guess myself every time I have to achieve a task. I have been fired before and have quit because I realised I was being fired from another job. I haven’t told anyone what has really happened and made an excuse when someone asks why I don’t work at places anymore. Recently, I have gotten a Christmas casual job and I feel like I am going down the same road. I am graduating this year and don’t think I will have to confidence to even consider doing the job that I studied so hard for. I feel like I’m the only one out of all my friends and family that struggle to learn new things and never can flourish in a job. Just wondering if there was anyone else like this.

Good for you for trying! It can be so discouraging losing a job. Do you have any memories or comments people have made that make you apprehensive? I know this will sound cheesy and stupid, but maybe exercising a little before work or chatting to someone before hand would help but idk.

I’m looking into the free therapy places to see a psychologist myself or there’s online but that’s not cheap.

I think that just the fact that I make stupid mistakes. It’s hard when you can see that your employees know you don’t perform well.

I haven’t tried exercising before hand but I will definitely give that a go.
