Trying to move ahead, but falling back again

Went for a job interview on Wednesday. I was excited. But on the way, someone decided to cause a big traffic confrontation. She was in my lane of traffic and came to a complete stop... told me that I had to move out of her way. Triggered me hard, almost made me late for the interview. Needless to say, the interview did not go the way I wanted it to.

Then yesterday, had another panic attack in the middle of Target. I feel frayed around the edges today. Right now, I am so upset about the whole thing that I am apprehensive about getting back into the job market at all. Maybe I should just give it up and content myself with staying at home with my kids and being isolated from the adult world.

(((((((((((((((obsids))))))))))))))))) i hope this feeling passes for you and the panic/anxiety eases.

rooting for you!

"Maybe I should just give it up and content myself with staying at home with my kids and being isolated from the adult world."

dont give up at the first sign of a problem, do you want to be a "stay at home mom" for the rest of your life?

it doesnt sound like that to me, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and try again.

Thinking of you and wondering how you are doing? If you check in, please do let us know. I am sorry this happened to you.

I have to agree with Mellors.
You can totally do this, Obsids!
Expect setbacks and obstacles. Just think of them of hurdles of learning. You master them and move on to other hurdles.
The lady in traffic was probably having a really, really bad day or something. Unfortunate that you had to become apart of it.

Don't let her negative energies bring you down.

The Target store anxiety attack was probably left over nerves from the job interview not going the way you wanted it to.
It's okay, though, live and learn!

If a job is what you really want then you're going to have to put yourself out there and fight for it.
Don't wimp out! Come on! Pick up the phone and schedule another interview at another place.
After awhile these interviews will be a piece of cake.

It'll get better!

Well, here is what I know so far.... got a call about a half hour ago from the senior Pastor. He said that they got more applicants for the job, so I won't find out tomorrow about whether or not I get the job.

*sigh*

I am jittery, but I don't think it has much to do with the pending outcome any more. I just want to know. I hate being left hanging. I would like to be able to plan my upcoming months, but I have to keep a lot open in case I actually do get the job.

I'm hoping for you!!!
