I have serious work anxiety. I started the role about 4 months ago and have never been so micromanaged in my life. You can't even breathe without being told you are doing it incorrectly! I have had many performance meetings with my boss where the advice often contradicts itself and no one can tell me where I might be going wrong (If I am). It's weird.
I have tons of experience, am more qualified than anyone in my department and was in my last job for ages with consistentpositive feedback. Also others have left citing similar issues with management so I know it isn't just me.
The problem is, I need to stay in this role for another year for a mortgage. I am planning to move once I get this and don't want an interim job (it is also very hard to find the right job where I currently live).
I am trying to bite my tongue at work but I would really like to scream. I don't want to launch a grievance, as the 'new person' it really isn't worth it.
How do I stay sane for one year and reduce my anxiety? All tips welcome!
