How to Overcome Fear of Working

Got a knot in your gut at the thought of going into work?

Stressed about not being 'up to the job', or being found wanting?

Is there really such a thing as 'fear of work'?

Lots of people dismiss the very idea of a 'fear of work' as nothing but a sign of laziness. A way of hiding your lack of gumption and staying power under a psychological label.

They don't know how debilitating it can be to really dread showing up in your workplace, how tough it is to make it through the day loaded with anxiety.

Dread like this can be set off by other things than work itself, of course. If bullying is or has been a problem, or if your working relationships are particularly challenging, you might find it helpful to look at our Dealing with Difficult People downloads. But right now we're talking about feeling anxious and stressed about the work.

Causes of work-related anxiety

Work fears can have one or more components in the brew. Maybe you're always worrying about mistakes. Perhaps you feel everyone is judging you (and finding you wanting). It might feel hard to relax and do what you have to do confidently and calmly.

You might think you're too slow, or too awkward, or simply don't have enough experience. And thinking about it all the time just makes you more anxious!

The thing to remember is that you weren't born this way.

This emotional pattern where you automatically associate work with anxiety and stress is something you've learned. And even though you've learned it, this doesn't mean you're stuck with it for good.

You can learn to make new positive associations with work, and you can do this much more quickly and easily than you might think.
