Overwhelmed !! ....

I started a new job,Yeah !! But I have'nt worked since this last April. I really feel like a fish out of water and then some. Monday will be day 3 and I guess I expected myself to be able to jump right in and start doing it ! I feel so intimidated by the fact that I need to learn their systems,their phone extensions,how not to get lost in the building and etc,etc... Has anyone else felt so inept at areas you used to be very proficient ? I just want to crawl under a large rock... Please help...:cry:

Hi Rascal and congrats on the job. Remember, you are NEW! It takes time. Just think, you have a JOB! You are earning $$$$ again! These are normal "stressors" for anyone in a new environment. You have been through worse than this, I'm sure. Re-activate that sense of humor and laugh off these frustrations. You can do it! And keep posting. Sending you best wishes! :nurse:

Entirely normal feelings for everyone...recoverying people or not.

Put one foot in front of the other and stay focused on one moment at a time. If you have to excuse yourself to the bathroom to say the Serenity Prayer, so be it. :)

Best of luck to you and congrats on going back to work.

I am sure things will settle down and you will find your feet. Everyone goes through this when starting a new job especially if it is somewhere they haven't worked before. ell done on getting a job and getting back on your feet

I am so happy for you! It must be difficult to go back to the floor. I will be going back in a few weeks if everything pans out. I can already identify with that feeling. I have not worked since July. We have jobs though! You have all our support here.

How are things now? YOu really must update us!!

Rascal or me ETN?
