New job and feel over my head already

I have lots of experience in a certain aspect of my work. I was doing ok in my career until I got a manager who basically didn’t think I could do my job which ended up in her bullying me but eventually I was laid off. I have lost a lot of confidence as a result.

the area I’m in is a big field! I have done bits and pieces in other areas but since starting my new job, I feel overwhelmed already! They seem to expect me to be an expert in everything! It’s going to take a lot of faking it and research and probably Mistakes to get to a point of feel comfortable if I make it that far! WWYD? I feel like crying already and it’s only day two!

Starting a new job is always a bit overwhelming.
Just make lots of lists and notes and try to relax a bit.
Even experts have a learning curve while they learn new systems, figure out priorities etc.

Hopefully your new manager is more supportive than your previous one

Good luck.
