I just started a paper route this week, and for me, this is a really big deal, as I have only worked 1 month in the last 4 years, and my emet has been quite bad lately. On the one hand, I'm happy to have this job, because a 2nd income will really help my family, and bringing in an income makes me feel good about myself, but...I have been super anxious since I started this job. I have been having (TMI) loose stool, some cramping, erratic appetite, and I get these tight, sinking, butterfly feelings in my chest. I think this is all due to new job nerves, but my emet keeps nagging me and telling me I am ill.
Will this ever go away? I don't want to quit, I just don't want to be a nervous wreck everyday. It's hard for me to leave my comfort zone (home) for 4-5 hours at a time. I feel I am so vulnerable, and out of control. Any encouragement or your experiences with job anxiety would be appreciated.
