Anyone else make a lot of mistakes at work. Like I work in an office and I put in the wrong numbers. I don't always understand what I'm being told. It makes me feel so dumb... I know it's anxiety, brain fog, ect. but that doesn't make me feel any better. do you guys just work really easy jobs? How do you cope?

      UGH YES! I recently started a new desk job. thank god, my boss is a saint. But sometimes when they are explaining new stuff to me I have like a memory lapse where I forget everything they just told me. I feel like an idiot. I honestly think just giving yourself “grace” i hate when people say that but it’s true. Just give yourself time to process and remember they would rather you ask questions and help you then have to redo a whole thing. Also something my boss tells me a lot is that there isn’t anything we can’t fix, don’t stress about it.

      Ugh I’m sorry. My boss is a saint but I still have moments where I’m worried of disappointing her. Lovely anxiety.

      Yeah we can fix most of the mistakes I make too. They get caught somewhere. My boss is just so intimidating, that it scares me to mess up. Don't feel like I can give myself grace if he doesn't. (He's never said anything bad, I'm sure it's mostly my anxiety)
