Hi there,
I used to work in a role I was really happy for 8 odd years it was admin in a uni project and I was in a nice team in the office and I’ve got to be honest the work was low stress admin and not that busy. That project ended and since then I’ve felt so lost when it comes to work. I’ve come to believe I must have anxiety but feel perhaps it stems more from being unhappy at work. Since I left that job I’ve worked in HR admin roles thinking I would like HR but I’ve been left feeling anxious all the time worrying about work and just feeling it’s not me. I find my personal life very stressful I have daughter with special needs and an energetic son and I really wanted a straight forward admin job where I finish my day and don’t think about work. It doesn’t help that the roles I’ve had lately have been totally remote which I feel adds to anxiety because there is just no chat with anyone everybody is busy it’s all via teams and I feel like home doesn’t feel relaxing cos I associate it with work.
Every day I check for uni jobs or similar and I know they’re in trouble as there’s so few jobs. I feel really low about my situation, is anyone in a similar boat? Can anyone think of other roles which might suit me better. I’ve been considering working in a library. Thank you for reading this far x
