Low confidence at work

[user9281911]

After some advice on how to deal with low confidence at work. My manager now wants me to take on a role that i did previously, the role is a bit more stressful than my current role and when I did it before I found it quite difficult but thrived on that and always felt proud of myself when I completed the job.
A lot has happened in my life since I have done the role and I am not confident in my ability anymore and also suffer with anxiety. I'm really worried about not been able to perform the role or it causing me anxiety.
Should I speak to my manager or should I just wait and see how I get on in the role?

Sorry to hear about your anxiety. Do you have any old notes, etc you could go back and revisit, to help build your confidence in the role? If you’ve done it so successfully before, then it’s a great start knowing this. Can you ask your manager if you can do it on a trial basis, so if you don’t feel comfortable after a month you can revert back? If you can manage it it might help rebuild your confidence. Good luck whatever you decide, hope it works out well.
