I know exactly how you feel. My supervisor is VERY specific about what she wants, and every little mistake just makes me feel worse and worse. If I only screwed up here and there I might not feel so bad, but I make many mistakes everyday. And sometimes they're not little, sometimes they're big. :/ I don't know what's wrong with me because I didn't used to be this way. I think maybe it's because though I'm detail-oriented, I've always been a very slow worker. What I'm doing right now is very fast-paced. If I work too fast I make a lot of mistakes, but if I work to slow my supervisor is still unsatisfied. It's a catch-22, and I don't know what to do about it. :/
I'm beginning to feel really bad about myself for constantly making mistakes. I feel like I'm a failure, I feel ashamed, and I can't justify to myself NOT feeling guilty about screwing up all the time. Does anyone else have these feelings?
