lilie Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I totally need this job in a big way but already I'm starting to panic. I'm going to try to take two ativan and see what happens. Please wish me luck. I need all the help I can get. Lilie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Calm, breathe, you will be OK! Do you know exactly what effects 2 ativan will have on you? Be careful not to over medicate yourself before you start or you may be causing yourself even more trouble walking through the door as a drowsy zombie on your first day! Try just to relax (I know how hard it is) and go with the flow. Hopefully you'll be so busy learning all your new duties that you will forget all about your anxiety and just coast through the day. I hope all goes well. Keep us updated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilie Posted July 14, 2005 Author Share Posted July 14, 2005 I did okay today so I'm proud of myself. Now if I can just keep the job I'll be batting 1000. Thank you for your support. Lilie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenyflower Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Yay, Lilie, The dreaded first day... Ugh. But you got through it and can start to enjoy it and master it. Enjoy the "honeymoon" and ask all the questions you can think of early and often. Everyone expects the new kid to ask a lot of questions. Congratulations!

nervyboy Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Lilie, Bully for you for even getting a job. I'm too shit scared to even look for another job. I hate the one I have, but I'm a chicken shit. You got through your first day just fine. Good for you. Pace yourself with the tranquilizers, the breathing (important) and expect good things to happen. Do you want to know something? If you start your day with a written TO DO list, things have a way of bending themselves to meet that list. So now your TO DO list might have a lot of learn this and learn that, meet helpful people, avoid assholes. Write it down. It kind of preps your day. You write it at home and you can leave it there, so nobody can see it. It can't hurt you, but I know it can surely help you. Blessings on you and your new job. Prosperity for you. Yay! Nervy.

lilie Posted July 22, 2005 Author Share Posted July 22, 2005 Thanks everybody! It's not much in the way of money but my self esteem is a little better and my panic, though still lurking, is better. Boy wouldn't it be nice if it went away altogether? Lilie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
