I haven’t had a job in six months, but tomorrow I’m getting my first paycheck from my new job. I’ve always had spending anxiety, but I’ve never had issues with getting a paycheck. In anticipation for this paycheck, Ive had multiple panic attacks.

I really need to get a haircut, but I also haven’t gone on a date with my husband in a year. On top of that I’m short of a few toiletries such as razors and deodorant, but I also have a few clothing items that are falling apart and need replaced such as underwear. The biggest thing is I really need to save some for a phone and a car. Somebody please tell me how to rid myself of this anxiety, but also what should I prioritize?  Like I know I can’t get it all on this paycheck, so what should I put off to the next paycheck?
