Insomnia Before Starting A New Job

By lolita_gomez September 09, 2020 9 answers Last updated September 09, 2020

Hello, How to deal with a major problem. Very soon, I will start a new job on Monday, but I am tormented by various thoughts (what will happen, will I cope, what is required of me) and I can not sleep. I tried various insomnia pills, but it didn't work. I have 3 more days until I start and I keep turning around in bed and thinking what will happen. I'm a little worried before starting a new job, but I think it always happens. In general, I'm not very lucky with the work so far, I haven't stayed long (for various reasons), I don't have a lot of work experience, I hope this time it's different. How do you deal with these things? Thank you for the advice.

   Hello! I feel that way, but having a test because I'm a student. Anxiety, I know what it feels like, will only be relieved when you get to know the environment. I wish you success in your new place and don't worry! ;) Evansitasa

   I'll tell you what helped me at a time like this. Some herbal tablets "Neuroton". You take 2 at night before bed and fall asleep. Success of the new job.

   Well, set yourself up, it may not be worth leaving. On the principle "as it came, we will see". And you will sleep peacefully.

   After I started my first job (still the only one so far), every day for half a year I walked with great tension until I got there (now what will they make me do, I thought ...) And my job is complicated and it takes a long time to improve, especially since my father has a name in this company. But after the start of the workday, the tension seemed to go away, because nothing was happening. Even the boss was obviously trying to refuse me, taking me around the machines every day to explain some things to me (believe me, I was punching straight out of so much information) and then testing me: D It was the same with driving before my turn came. , but he sat behind the wheel and saw that there was nothing so scary driving calmly.

   Number 5, sounds very good, I had the same problem with driving. Now with the work ... it turns out that my main problems in life are these two. Unfortunately, I did not keep my book, and with what I will do, I am obviously a loser. Number 3, that's exactly how I tuned in, because otherwise you really don't know what will come out. It is very likely not worth it. As it came. And for a beginner like me .. it's been a year since my last job .. how do you get ready to work again after such a long break. I still can't, especially for 9 hours a day at work ... it seems like a lot. Haha. Thank you

   From number 5. And why, while it was a year off, didn't you try to get the book out? If you do not drive in Sofia, but in another regional city and you know it by heart, it will be much easier for you. I traveled from a small town every day on the Hemus highway to drive in Sofia in completely unfamiliar places for me and with a very strict instructor, who introduced additional tension, I was torn twice for small driving things, but I still took it empty. book. I didn't even want this book, but ours blew my head then. Now, when I think about it, it's even funny to me, and I also didn't sleep normally because of worries then. With these unnecessary thoughts before the new job or driving, we only get annoyed and worried without any real problem still in front of us.

   Hello! There is nothing wrong with that. I'm pretty much the same. There is a word in English "overthinking" - I think it very accurately describes our feelings and emotions in such moments. Our brains are flooded with thoughts, hesitations, doubts if you will. And it signals anxiety to the body, which prevents the muscles from calming down and relaxing. That's why we can't sleep. I don't know what to advise you - you can try meditation, reading a book. Try to impose yourself, I think you have nothing to worry about and that you will cope in the new place.

   I have the same problem. By the way, many people have it! I have been taking pills for years and when everything is normal they help me sleep. But when something new is coming - no! The only thing that has an effect is when the time comes to say "fuck everything and everyone ..."
