I have been unemployed for the past six months and I'm finally starting a new job at the end of the month. While I'm thrilled to have found a position, I can't shake the anxiety about returning to work. The thought of getting back into a routine, dealing with stress, and meeting expectations feels overwhelming. I also feel guilty for not completing personal projects I had planned during my time off, like reorganizing my house. I'm worried about whether I can perform at the same level I did before and if I'll be able to earn the salary I used to make. I know I need to give myself grace during this transition, but the anxiety is real. I'm curious to hear how others have adjusted after a long break from work.
