Stress & Finding a Job

Inglewood

I finished working for a retail comapny at the end of last year, through stress and I have been diagnosed with Aspergers.  I had an interview with a work placement, but when I got there I struggled to get out of the car, and once I did I got to meet my initial employment services contact (not through NAS).  I got into the building, but told them I couldn't go through with it and left.

Has anybody else had similar experiences?

I have another different interview tomorow afternoon, and don't know how I will feel?

I just feel so stressed at the moment.

Any thoughts anybody?

    Your reaction isn't that surprising given what happened to you the last time you were at work. You really don't want to go through that mill again so your body is reacting badly.

    Has the diagnosis helped to make sense of why you ended up getting so stressed in your last job? Do you feel that you can use your understanding to handle some situations better?
