Hello, I totally know how you feel. I work in a very detailed job and make mistakes all the time. I have been fired twice for missing my mistakes. I tend not to trust my own work and do the work multiple times to fix my mistakes before my boss sees the work. I get sooo nervous that I loss track of what I'm doing and space out. It's gotten so bad now that my boss does not trust my work or my capacity. I have put in my notice to avoid being fired. Some pressure has been taken off my back but I know it will follow me to my next job. I'm trying to save face in my current job before I leave I don't know what to do.
