Does your job give you anxiety?

Question

Cynicaldreamer · Accepted Answer

Thankfully no, at least not right now.
I just switched jobs about two months ago: my previous job wasn't stressful so much as the management I dealt with.

I would have stayed there, but when the manager warned me the director wasn't happy with my productivity and wanted to meet with me about it? (Huge red flag) I got the heck out of there before she even had the chance to set up a meeting!!! It feels nice having a job with clear expectations, minimal drama, and low stress.

Not really. I've gotten a lot of therapy to help with anxiety, though, but it does help my boss and work are chill.

I stress, but it's not anxiety as much as frustration. A lot of my workload depends on other people, so when they fall through (often) it stalls me out.

When I first moved to my position it did. Its fast paced with a ton of moving parts that always break or need adjusting. I was filled with dread for the first six months. 4 years on I have it down pat now it just gives me anger issues.

my old jobs gave me anxiety though to be more accurate, dealing with an unresponsive boss and a top heavy HR department and the unusual competitive environment was the actual culprit, not the job itself. This was in engineering.

All my jobs were horrible but my last two, especially the last, left me wanting to drive off a cliff after every shift. And those feelings lasted for three days after each shift (i didn't work everyday, it was part time). So i just had to stop working at all for my own mental health. Just couldn't do it anymore.

I love my job most days, the days I don't, it's only because of the workload. I don't dread going in. There is definitely pressure, but that's 90% self-induced.

CopperKing · Answer

It gives me anxiety but I love it. I don't think I could stand to have a job that did not push me as hard as I can go.

Yes my employment over the years has been stressing me. Has put weight on me because I'm a stress eater. I do exercise and try to work off the anxiety and stress.
