I went for a second interview for a second job, it was short and more of a conversation about the position and what I was looking for. The manager said my application made me look reliable and would give me a call by Monday about the job.
This was yesterday, ever since then I have not been able to concentrate, have been depressed and in tears and had a panic attack thinking about it. If I get it it will be a godsend and I'll be able to financially breathe and pay off my debt in around a year and a half. If I don't get it I will still be living tight paycheck to paycheck having a nsf charge cause rent isn't on par with my schedule.
I am feeling a multitude of feelings but have been in bed. I try working out but my mind was elsewhere and I cried during part of it. What can I do to calm down? I've taken 2 klonoins and still anxious.

Music doesn't have an effect. I feel so panicked.

I tend to tackle such issues head-on as opposed to trying to self-soothe. I think it stems from having BPD tendencies, and then learning to adapt to those tendencies. Since I suck as self-soothing, anyway, I find it more strategic to just throw-down with my emotions and get to the bottom of things. If I were in your shoes, I'd be doing a lot of thinking and self-talk on why I have such a hard time with uncertainty, reminding myself that I've been through worse and I can handle whatever is coming.

Music doesn't help everyone. For me it would sometimes. But I always took a Ativan and self-talk. I know what I've been through and what I've overcome I just need to remind myself of these things when times get tough. I'm in a similar situation. I've filed for disability and I need it so bad. My case manager told me things looked real good but still I worry. I had to tell myself to calm down and hold on and just pray. I'm not religious but I believe in prayer. I hope some of this helps u

I would call tomorrow and respectfully ask if they had made any decisions yet. At least you'll know, one way or the other.

This is anxiety, it is normal to be anxious in this situation. Some emotions you just have to live with.

Sometimes it takes longer than expected to get the offer. Its happened to me. I start thinking that I don't have the job, then next thing you know, I get the phone call. Hang in there!!
