I work for the NHS and made a mistake at work last week. It is adminstrative so no patients were hurt in anyway. I am going through the menopause and have been struggling with sleeping, night sweats and forgetfullness etc.
I work with other secretaries and I feel that I am the only one who seems to mess up. They say they do, but I feel not as much. I have heard the way that some colleagues comment when someone else makes a mistake. I have been really beating myself up about it as I have made a few other mistakes and do not want to be labelled. I have really low self-esteem and anxiety. I sometimes think I would be better off getting a really easy job, just so that I would not get things wrong. I am dreading going back to in case they say they say I may need to be monitored. I am driving myself crazy over thinking it all.
