It’s mainly work that worries me. The fear of being let go and having to struggle for money. It’s always been a fear because one time a while ago I was let go unexpectedly and had to scramble to pay my rent and had to borrow money, use my savings and just felt horrible. It was a really, really low point for me. I worry about having to go through that again.

My anxieties about work have definitely improved over the past few months compared to how I was before then. But now it feels like it’s creeping back because I made a mistake today and now am thinking, “uh oh what if I’ve made more mistakes…”?
