Anxiety Support Group

Hello,
This is my first time posting in this group and I actually had anxiety about joining the daily strength website. I have been experincing a lot of anxiety in the last couple of years that has interacted with my happiness. My biggest worry is that I am in my 40s and after 20 years in my previous profession I decided to go back to school and do something else. Today I am almost finished with my schooling and the closer I get to moving into a new profession the more anxiety I feel. I feel I will not be good enough or have the abilities needed for the career that I have chose to go into. I know a lot of my fears are not realistic and may stem from life change. But I cannot help but to feel this way. Thanks for your support I think I may just need to know that everyone feels this way at times.

Hey yall! I don't usually post or check in here though it's been on my list for years. My name is Sara and I live at home with my parents. Collectively we have four dogs and two cats.

If you weren't feeling anxiety at this transition, I would accuse you of denial and/or being a foolish blowhard. That is a BIG transition! ! !
You are far from alone. I hope you will keep articulating your anxieties here as they emerge throughout the transition and inspire us with your courage and persistence as you approach your brave, new world. It is an amazing act of courage you are undertaking. Go you! ! ! Way to do the do! ! !
Welcome aboard.
Thank you so much for your encouragement. It is much appreciated.

Thank you.. I just feel at every step I make my anxiety will make me self sabotage and I am constantly fighting against that feeling. I am thankful to have found some support.

Thank you for the encouraging words. I have really pushed myself to get through the schooling there has been many weak moments were I did not feel that I would get as far as I have. And the schooling part is the easy part once I am completely done in December that's when reality sets in and I have to practice everything I have learned in real life. I really do appreciate this group.
Thank you,
Tietjen
Trying new ways is interesting, and you are much stronger than you realize.
