I’m afraid to get a job

I can relate, in a sense. I got a new job in December and it was, and still is, a bit crazy for me. I was afraid to leave what was familiar and more comfortable for the last 6 years. The worst part is that I have been doing my line of work for 14 years and I still have to convince myself that I am not an imposter and that I CAN do the job successfully. Each day, I still feel anxiety, but it is getting better every day. I am fortunate that I have a wife and a few kids that keep me going, that, and reading that there are others like me (here) and that they feel the same crazy and irrational things that I do. Go for it, deal with it one day at a time, and you will feel better because of that.
