I'm in the first week of my new job after being made redundant from my last role and I'm really struggling. I loved my last job so much, and the redundancy was completely out of the blue that I now feel so apathetic and bitter with this new job - like what's the point in trying to settle if it could all disappear in a blink of an eye?
I'm working from home and have not really been given anything to do aside from reading. On my first day I was told to read the training materials and then I finally spoke to my manager at 4pm. It feels so lonely and different to other inductions I've had at different companies.
I'm really doubting every decision I've made in my career. The money for this job is good, but it is very isolating - just sitting in silence at home writing long documents and then one meeting a week with the team.
I woke up today and didn't want to log on. I just wanted to email HR and tell them I quit already.
I'm really not sure how to pull myself together. My mental health is really low at the moment.
