Hello,
So a while ago I got some really great advice with anxiety about my upcoming unemployment. Well, things on that front have changed, I have found myself a new position at a new University (Don't think I mentioned it before but I work in HE) this University is a lot larger than my previous one where I was educated and spent my first year after graduation working a very interesting job. However, now I am leaving after 4 great years and I'm scared to death.
I was only on a small wage before but it was more than enough for me and I was happy just to be employed, now this new job is around £7,000 per year which means more responsibility, larger workload and longer hours. However and this is where my issue starts, I don't think I'm good enough for this position I feel as if they have hired me by mistake that I have said something in my interview or application that mislead them to believe I am brilliant. I fell that I will get in the building on my first day they will expect great things from me but I won't perform as I am not good enough to be there.
I don't know what to do, I'm scared. I am also tired and alone, this always happens I jump from one issue to another and never seem to be able to settle. I just want to do well, this job is something I want to be good at but I am so pessimistic that I can never have a moment of joy. As soon as I saw the contact today and it said 12-month probationary period I thought well I don't think I will even make it through that has after a month they will see in a fraud and unable to perform.
HELP ME PLEASE
