I graduated recently and spent some time really stressing about finding a job, so when I finally got one in financial services it felt like such a relief but I’m only two days in and honestly I feel awful. Both days I got home and just wanted to go straight to my room and cry. I feel so weirdly down and deflated and I can’t really explain it.
I am a big overthinker and I’ve never been great with change, so maybe that has something to do with it. But the job itself is fine so far, the people are really nice and the work is pretty simple at the moment. It just feels a bit overwhelming being there and I think the whole “this is the start of my full-time working life” has dawned on me. I don’t really know how I’m supposed to feel right now but I know I feel miserable and it’s kind of scaring me.
Can anyone relate to this? Does it get better?
