Got the dream job that I wanted - now so many challenges and don't know how I am going to cope!

Hi guys,

I have not been working for a year now (kept myself busy with Volunteer-work and had lots of coffee-catch-ups). I applied for a Traineeship in Management Accounting and further studies and got it! Now I am scared to death that I am not going to be able to do it! I felt so anxious before my aptitude test, but I managed to score 86% and yesterday the same: prior to the Interview, my hands were shaking, heart racing! I was so nervous that I wanted to run away! but I managed to pull it off and now I got the job!

Any advice? should I speak to my Psych Doc and get some extra meds to help me cope? but then that will make me feel out of it and I won't be able to cope that way either.

Thanks UA

you are so right! I think I got through both occasions because I did use breathing techniques (breath in deeply and then puff out fast and hard!) and it did help. Guess I am just going to do a lot of breathing for a while

My first day would be on the 27th of October. I'll let you guys know how it is going.

Keep well
