Recently (5 months ago) I left an admin job where I’d worked for 15 years to go do a job I’d always fancied (and had the academic qualifications for). It hasn’t gone well. Technically I can- and have- been doing the job, but anxiety wise it’s taken it’s toll and I can’t manage the deadlines. I need to go back to admin.
However, my confidence has taken a hit . I’m applying for stuff and getting responses but I’m feeing really worried that I’ll be crap at it and it’ll go wrong again.
Im middle aged and should be over such ridiculous anxiety. Any advice ?
