Hi Littlestar8

Welcome to TBBD, it's a very positive and helpful space to support each other.

I'm sorry to hear your struggling to find employment. I take my hat off to you Littlestar for trying. Anxiety suxs. I have found the more often I repeat something the anxiety lets up -not completely gone, but manageable - like managing to not leave 'groceries' on shelves and do a runner from the local Supermarket!!

Do you take any medication for anxiety? There is a herbal alternative, Rescue remedy - maybe you could take this before your interview...

I wonder if prior to having ph interviews, you write out what you want to say to the interviewer, and write down some 'possible question' you may be asked, - being prepared is half the battle.

My other advice would be to read up and learn about the job description and any other info re: type of work - the work-place.

I hope this is of any help, I hope also in the future, I too will have the courage to apply for work. Be proud of you cause your giving your all to find work.

Hugs

Hi littlestar

What helps me is creativity in many forms, from photography to painting my nails, sorry I lied about the nails, but not painting. I have a plan to paint gnomes and make them trendy again hmm

I have lots of advice, but don't act on a lot of it YET, but have a look at your local high-schools for night classes, like cooking, car maintenance, growing hedgehogs that sorta stuff, there may just be something there that grabs your attention. A something to focus on.

Take care and I hope you find your 'focus on', mine at the moment is making cuff gloves (fingerless ones) from second-hand polar fleece scarves. I could post you the how to and a stencil of the glove to be....
