feelings of dread at work
I’m not really good with words so i apologise if I don’t explain this very well.
I’ve only ever had two paid jobs (both part time). And the second one I started about a month ago. To clarify, I do want to work and need to work to support myself financially. At both jobs I have never felt the feeling of dread so much. I really don’t like new things at all, like new place, new people, new environment and experiences. The staff are so moody all the time when I ask for help or just clarification because I really don’t like doing things wrong. I don’t fully understand everything yet but I felt like such a hinderance asking the same questions all the time. When I also get overwhelmed I get really upset, and the whole day today I’ve nonstop thought about having to go to work tomorrow, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I can’t even explain what I feel I just get so overwhelmed to the point where I feel sick and then just numb. If I try and talk to the manager he just tells me to suck it up, ignores it, or to ask for help even though I do and I just seem to get fobbed off. Also if I ask my family to speak to the manager he won’t even let them because I am my own person which is fair, but I cannot speak to him myself (again feeling too stupid to talk to him). My family work there too but they don’t understand my feelings either. They just tells me to quit because I’m acting stupid (probably wants me to leave so I don’t make her look bad). I try and just keep my head down and just get through but it just goes 10x slower. I don’t know I just feel like no one understands and it’s really overwhelming and I’m just exhausted with it :(
