Overwhelmed in work

I've been in my new job for a month, but had previous experience in the field. The problem is I am swamped with work and I can't handle the stress. I work in a target driven environment and expectations are high which is adding extra pressure. I told my manager I am a little overwhelmed and she gave me some advice for time management but it wasn't that helpful.

I leave work absolutely exhausted and wake up in the mornings barely able to get out of bed. Today I was near tears with stress and I'm feeling so rundown, I have mouth ulcers and a sore throat.

I really enjoy the job, but I'm overwhelmed with everything I need to balance. Im not sure what to do

Hi Eleny
Sorry to hear the stress your under with your new job.Try to be compassionate with yourself as your are taking on this challenge of working on being comfortable with the demands you are trying to face.What would you suggest to a friend who was in your shoes.Practice self care and hopefully this to will pass.Take care.

I had mouth ulcers a few months ago partially from stress. I found that using hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash helped.

I hope you start feeling comfortable in the job soon. Take a lot of vitamin C for your sore throat.

Sounds like you are going to have to lower the target expectations come hell or high water.
