So, probably 90% of the time my anxiety is health related. Recently, though, that has changed. I'm going to graduate in December and am frantically applying for jobs. I've had two interviews (last week) but haven't heard back. And I continue to apply to new jobs as well.
I'm eduacated and I have a decent amount of experience. I'm a hard worker and willing to learn quickly. I have no shortage of great references. I have a good resume, and am a decent writer so my cover letters are usually good as well.
I feel like I'm doing all I can and everything else is out of my control. I don't know if I should be following up, or how to do so in a way that isn't awkward.
Because of this, I am sooooo agitated. I can't sit still, literally. I'm constantly having to walk around or fidget with something. I jiggle my legs a lot while sitting down. I just can't. Sit. Still.
I'm also worried about becoming depressed. Historically, prolonged anxiety has left me feeling utterly hopeless and then my depressive symptoms sink back in. I lose all motivation and begin to just hate everything about myself. I can't afford that, certainly not now, but I can feel it happening and idk what to do.
Any advice?
