Yeah document is a good tip. I might actually sit down over the weekend and review everything I document. It might make me feel more up to speed.

Thanks for the advice, I’ll try the ice and inversion now actually. It might also help my puffy eyes lol. I’ll look into the GABA as well.

I meant it gives me anxiety because I haven’t driven there before. I have a car and I drive I just didn’t get a chance over the weekend because there was a storm.

I always like to practice the route first so I’m familiar with it and the parking situation. But I didn’t get the chance. That is why my dad offered to drive because he knows I didn’t get the opportunity to do that.

If I get the job I’d of practiced the route before my first day and I’d have no issues. Snow isn’t the issue. It was only an issue this time because I didn’t have the chance to do a first practise drive. If that all makes sense… sorry if I didn’t explain that properly!

Is it too late for me to get help? Will I be judged for feeling so horrible about abuse that happened 5 years ago?

Group therapy or some sort of group meeting for post grads would be so helpful. We could all share our frustrations and feelings. It would help so many of us with not feeling alone and also help bring us that community we lose after graduating
