I haven't yet found a 100% fool-proof way of dealing with this terrible anxiety-ish feeling that builds up slowly over the course of a few hours. But, when it is connected to procrastinating stuff I am feeling scared of (small things like an email to order some components for the lab. I've never done anything like this before! This is some real grown-up, business-y stuff and that's kinda creepy.), tackling those issues sooner rather than later at least stops it from getting worse. :/

 

Because tbh I should not be so terrified that I can't log in to my email account. That's silly. But I can't help it. Also it's not like I'm doing it without supervision, anyway - so rationally, there is really nothing to be afraid of. :) Fun.

Also I've been doing an "extra" lab course over the past week and this week, which added so many hours to my schedule, I'm really exhausted. So, sorry 'bout the latest decrease of activity, there was so. Much. To do. :<

 

How have you guys (and gals, and everything in between) been?

Yeah, anxiety sucks, I feel you there. Though it sounds like you're able to deal with it to at least some degree, which is something. I hope you're able to improve on it further. And I also hope that all the extra work is at least going alright ^^

Yeah, new work responsibilities can be intimidating. Like last summer was the first time I presented a dessert for a five course dinner. And like, I had to design the dish itself and make it from scratch, and it had to be a quality dessert too.

 

The night of the dinner I was a nervous wreck. I'm not sure why either. I had everything prepared, I had made the dessert beforehand and everything tasted great, I even had enough for extra platings in case something went wrong (like if a server dropped a dish).

 

Even though everything went without a hitch it was still an emotionally draining experience. XD

 

But yeah, the best advice I can give is this: try your best to work with a calm mind. You're probably more capable of handling real grown-up businessy stuff than you realize.
