I started a new job in April. It is part time but slightly more hours than my last job, and I also have to work in the office at least 1 day a week, sometimes 2 out of 3 days. I love the job I have gone to and I feel like once I settle in and know what I'm doing that I'll be fulfilled and glad of the change.
Problem is, right now I feel so anxious. Everything is new about the routine and I'm struggling to adjust from knowing most things in my old job to now knowing virtually nothing in the new one. I hate working in the office because I'm struggling to figure out who I should be and what I should say to get people to like me. I feel really lonely and like there is a spotlight on me as the new person.
I'm not sure what I hope for with sharing this but I really just wanted to get it off my chest.
Oh and I already take anxiety medication but I feel no real benefit from it. I've tried counselling but I have only ever been able to access 6 sessions at a time because of cost and accessibility through my old work. I'm not sure it'd look great if I asked for it in my new job anyway so early on and I cannot afford private at the moment.
