Small but wanted to share

Hi,

Some of you already know, I started a new job this week. I had been really nervous because my health anx only started after I already had my job so starting something new was really scary.

Well I have to say, I have pushed myself this week..............

I stayed in a hotel for a week on my own (didn't panic while there which was great - usually when I am on my own it rears its ugly head)

I have met loads of new people and the job is going to keep me busy so less time for my mind to wander back to health anx..... I know it will sometimes but will be ready to fight it!!!!!

I hate doing things that are new, I usually like routine so this has been great for me and my confidence is better than it has been for ages.

I know its not a big deal.... people start new jobs all the time but feel so chuffed I have been able to do it and not let my anx stand in my way

:yesyes:

Thanks for reading!

Well I didn't last long, sorry not such a success afterall :(

I am gonna take some time out for me and start looking for something more suitable!!!

[groovygranny]

A success that comes to a premature end is still a success in my book - and I don't think anyone will disagree with me Claire!

You tried - and will try again.........success whichever way you look at it!:blush:

Enjoy your time out and I wish you all the very best!

Big hugs for you
