Career anxiety

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi everyone!

I've been feeling awful for the past two weeks because I have to write my first CV and I'm 23 years old, I feel embarrassed for not have working experience, I guess I feel more guilty than afraid of being rejected. Does anyone ever feel that has to do something but unconsciously walk away of it? Trying to pretend that the thing will b solved by itself. I just wanted to go further with my life, I'm sick of being trapped in this whole that makes me guilty and feeling incapable. I just wanted to feel powerful and able to make whatever I want without being anxious and sorry for myself.
