I work in the front desk at my job and it’s common to have to repeat rules and regulations with different individuals that aren’t abiding by the rules. I’m a confident woman and I have no issue laying down the boundaries without intimidation. However, I’ve had a history of anxiety prior to my job. I recently discovered during confrontation I believe I experience anxiety or panic attacks and as I stand up to hand another visitor a pass my hands began to Trimble uncontrollably.
I had no idea the situation triggered me until I noticed this reoccurring situation when I’m dealing with specific visitors. I have to rub my arms and breathe hoping that I can calm my body down. I know I have anxiety disorder but this part sorta makes me emotional because I’m trying to get my body to relax.
Any tips?
How do I ease my anxiety attacks at work?
