This is my first post. I have been suffering from GAD\work related anxiety for 16 years now and have been on paroxetine for most of that time.
I think my problem is mostly anticipatory anxiety. Always thinking what if thoughts regarding work. What if I can't cope with the workload. What if so and so leaves ? What if I can't fix the next problem or what if my boss doesn't like something I do ? I am terrified of losing my job and ending up on the breadline, although when I look at the facts this will never happen.
Whenever I take a holiday the anticipation of returning to work becomes overwhelming.
I always get good feedback and appraisals but feel I must always be anticipating the next problem that may come up.
I am just so fed up feeling this way. Are there any other people out there who feel the same ?
