Navigating Job Market Anxiety: Seeking Support and Success Strategies

I'm currently 24 years old and struggling to find my footing in the job market. I've worked several part-time jobs in retail and food service, but every time I seem to hit a wall. My latest job is at a pizza place, and I'm already considering quitting because I can't seem to grasp the basics. I often feel overwhelmed and anxious, which makes it hard for me to learn and remember tasks. My coworkers have expressed frustration with my pace, and I end up feeling embarrassed and like a burden. It's frustrating because I perform well academically and even made the honor society, so I know I'm capable, but the workplace environment just throws me off. I really want to stick with a job long enough to gain experience and build a solid resume, but the anxiety makes it difficult. Has anyone else faced similar challenges, especially with anxiety? What helped you find a job that you could succeed in?
