that every time I find a new job, I want to quit? Give me about three weeks at a job, and I will find myself filled with self loathing and depression. I get this urge to run, and not look back. I convince myself that the grass is greener somewhere else. Ignoring the feeling that it isn't going to be any easier anywhere else.
Im a terribly shy person. But I decided to step out of my comfort zone, and take a job where I have to answer the phones all day, I have to sell glasses to customers (I'm an optician), and I have to try an connect with the people that I am working with.
Lets just say I get panicky before I answer the phone, or when customers come in. I feel nervous and stressed all the time, and it makes me come across as stupid. I'm so nervous that I have a hard time listening or comprehending everything they are telling me, and I can tell my boss is beginning to get really frustrated with me. Not only that I have no idea what to say to my fellow employees, I hate talking about myself, and they don't really talk to me and ask questions.
I went into this job feeling strong, and positive. But every day I feel like something is eating away at me. Like accidentally stepping in some quicksand, and everyday I'm just a little deeper, until I drown in it. I just get so frustrated with myself. I don't like dealing with my problems. I just want to run away, and never look back. I can see why everyone that I work with has a drinking problem. God I needed to vent. Thanks for listening.:smile:
