Recently I felt forced out of a job I really loved and felt passionate about. Despite it being a....lowly job....I grew to really love it and found it to be a huge pillar of support in my life. It gave me routine, purpose, people to see daily. I felt like I was going somewhere.

Due to a workplace conflict I feel I was forced out of my job and had to quit. I walked out during a conflict with a coworker because I didn’t want to fight it out. I was seen as a “walk out” and wasn’t understood or listened to after 5 ish years of working there. 

This was my first job I really committed to (25 years old) and I feel so lost without it.

In the weeks following my departure I feel so stuck in the house and totally alone. I have many things to be thankful for but I feel I can’t enjoy them because my anxiety and mind and paranoia is working against me. All these terrible feelings flare up and affect all parts of my life. Relationships. Career. Motivation. My interests. I feel stuck inside the house and feel as though I’m having daily panic attacks, sometimes 2-3 times a day. 

Does anyone have any advice in coping with anxiety?
