How the hell to not feel incompetent at work
I have anxiety and I’m about 3months into my first actual salaried job. I work in PR, a majority of my work is research and writing. I do a good job, I’ve received really positive feedback from my superiors, I have proof that I’m competent. Why can’t I shake the feeling of anxiety and fear that they’re going to fire me for my small mistakes? Comments like “For future reference, let’s CC so and so on these emails”, the process of requesting pto, or other small adjustments make me feel like the stupidest person ever. Every correction sounds like it has annoyance behind it, and I’m sick with the fear that they’re going to feel like I’m too idiotic and awkward to do my job or be a valuable asset? I’m cycling between feeling really confident and feeling like a fxck up, and it’s the worst. Is this normal? How do I shake it?
