Hi Jacinta,
Welcome back. I'm sorry to hear that you're still feeling upset and frustrated about the situation at work and your current emotional state. It's important to remember that everyone has moments when they make mistakes or feel overwhelmed, and it's okay to have those emotions.
When you're feeling overwhelmed, it can be helpful to step away from the situation for a moment. Take deep breaths and try to relax your mind and body.
Do you have someone you trust to talk to lately? A friend, family member, or a therapist. Sharing your thoughts and emotions can provide you with a different perspective and emotional support.
Everyone makes mistakes, the positive side is that you have good self-awareness. Take some time to reflect on what happened at work. Consider whether there are any lessons to be learned from the experience. Reflection drives improvement.
And I feel that you have too much negative thoughts in your head. Remember, your mistake can't define you as a person. Instead of dwelling on the negative aspects, remind yourself of your positive qualities and strengths.
If you're unhappy with your current job and believe it's contributing to your distress, it may be worth exploring other job opportunities. But don't rush on finding a similar job, take this chance to carefully think what type of job suits you best, makes you happier and less stressed. It's never too late to change profession. You can engage a career coach if needed.
Last, if you're on medication and still experiencing persistent negative thoughts or emotional difficulties, it may be helpful to consult with your doctor or mental health professional. They can assess your current medication regimen and make any necessary adjustments to better support your well-being.
Remember, it's crucial to be patient with yourself. Changing jobs or improving your emotional well-being takes time. I hope everything will be better, but anytime you need our suggestions, feel free to come back.
Mark
