don't want to let them down

My anxiety gets pretty bad and when it does it includes dry heaving which is extremely embarassing. My dad's gfs son is a lawyer and they are hiring for a receptionist there that pays very well. They helped with my resume and I submitted it today. Even tho I think this would be really good for me the thought of an interview or changing jobs terrifies me. What if I get sick and let them all down. I'm so anxious about this whole thing.

I would just be honest with the people who are going to interview with you and just let them know you are nervous. Many times the interviewee will help calm you down and tell you it's not as awful as you have built it up in your head. Don't take the chance of losing a good job, just take slow deep breaths and have faith in yourself. Let us know how the interview goes. Hugs GB

Get yourself in the moment, and relax. Practice relaxing in front of the mirror, so you can feel yourself relaxing. This will help you focus in the moment during your interview.

Best wishes!
