Hey guys, 22yr male here, I haven’t posted here before but I don’t really feel like opening up to my friends or family about how bad my anxiety really is yet. I was unfortunate enough to have a bunch of concussions at a young age which started my anxiety.1

I’m set to start training for a new job next week, as a Clinic Navigator for a Covid Vaccine clinic in my area. It should be pretty straight forward and easy, just telling people where to go and such. I’m also just a casual employee so it’s not like I’ll be working tons of hours.

And yet I am just disgustingly anxious to start. It’s really bad when I wake up and it’s worse throughout the afternoon, just constant anxiety and having to check my heart beat. It gets better in the evening when I can just avoid thinking about it by chatting with my friends over some video games. I just don’t know how i’m gonna get through this week with this feeling every day. 

I’ve also made an appointment to get back on anxiety medications starting next week so hopefully that helps long term. If anyone has some similar experiences or advice I’d love to hear it
