im 21 and this is only my 2nd job I was supposed to start this new job in november last year but then the UK was put into another lockdown, so i eventually started in january as part time, (the job was advertised as full time but due to covid and them not being able to furlough me, i now work 3 days a week) myself and another girl (also new to the job) were sent to a remote office away from the branch where we did some training as we are both brand new to the industry.
now i really enjoyed it when we were at the remote office. we were told we would be going in the office after 5 weeks of training, it ended up being after 3 weeks and when i say 3 weeks i mean 10 days and when i got into the office i felt like i knew nothing. Me and the other new girl work on different days.
The first day i was in there another girl complained at me because i didn't get ask for a Clients name or number on the phone (my previous job was in care so i had no idea about office work) so i made sure i wouldn't do it again.
Then a few days later she complained at me because i didnt get full information on a client and she said that i wasted her time- i understand but i am brand new and have never worked in the industry.
But now everyday that i go into the office im absolutely terrified that i've done something wrong the previous time I’ve gone in and i can't think of anything but work when i'm not at work, Like i'm panicking right now that something i did last week is going to be brought up and im going to be in trouble, even though im not even sure ive done anything wrong.
I don't want to quit the job because when i am there i enjoy it and its a better career than my previous job but i also feel like i cant go on feeling like this and panicking about it when im not even there.
does anyone else feel like this? am i losing my mind? should i just give up and go back to my old job?
i dont know how to switch off and stop worrying?
im sorry its so long, but thank you for reading, its 5 am here and ive been worrying since 3 when i woke up panicking.
I have spoken to a dr and they are referring me to counselling for depression, but I just need some advice with this anxiety.
