I have had anxiety for the past 25 years. My current employer is retiring so therefor I need a new job. I have an interview tomorrow and having the worst anxiety imaginable. My anxiety gets so bad I have to run out of places. What if I get so anxious I have to just feel the need to get out. Omg why am I like this. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Show your confidence in your past experience, but make it a point to share your flexibility in change and the learning of new things. I think depending on if your applying for a similar job, would make this all more important. If it's a new type of job, I think your loyalty and commitment is all in your corner.

Feel good, be confident, be that beautiful person you are for us. You will do fine. A good nights rest and focus on staying relaxed but sharp. It's like riding a bike, you got this! Hugs and best success tomorrow!

Tell yourself over and over again that you are safe, all is well. I do this frequently and it helps when I feel like running or freezing. It helps stop the chatter too. Good luck tomorrow. You can do it!

I had a panic attack while my daughter was in the dental chair and all I wanted to do was grab her and run,however I couldn't do that mid cleaning,So I made myself stay there and ride it out while doing my deep breathing....I really using the breathing a lot to calm the anxiety.I breathe in to the count of 4 and hold for 4 and then exhale to the count of 6....I wish you all the best.!!! I am the same way about having to go to the Dr....

Good luck Monday . . (((( I. ))))

I have the impression you have a -- definitely -- good record.
(And of course on the one hand they may already have someone picked out.)
But!, at the other end of the scale you may already be through the first stage...and this interview is only a formality.

If this is the case don't wear a T-shirt w Castro's picture and you'll be OK! for this part.

Wear a nice vest and Elvis Tee and they could love it.
..well on second thought . . .

. Cal. . . we're rooting for you
