I had a job interview today. And I actually went and did it.
I've been suffering with depression and anxiety for a while, and the past year has been horrific. I quit my job (as it was a major factor) and I felt ready to get back into something I'm passionate about.
I've had a few interviews lined up but cancelled last minute due to my anxiety and having a panic attack before leaving the house / on a bus / in a taxi etc.
But today I did it. I loaded myself up on propranolol, got in a taxi, I took some deep breaths before walking through the doors and it all went fine. I waffled and was cringey, but I made them laugh and saw some nodding / smiling and note taking while I was answering the questions.
Even if I do get this job I feel like it's a massive hurdle I've overcome! I've told my partner and he's proud but I just felt like shouting it from the rooftops (on mn!) as it's really no big deal to most people, but it's massive to me!!
