How to overcome regret and fear from old job terrible mistakes? I feel so angry at myself and worried
Posted , 3 users are following.
hey guys
i hope all is well. i asked this question before but will simplify it better here.
so im 27 and currently working as an engineer. however during uni i worked part time as a waiter in a terrible bar chain.
the job was bad for me anyway as i am diabetic and had regular hypos, but what i regret the most is the terrible inappropriate mistakes i made which i fear will haunt my future.
i ended up getting fired from flirting inappropriately with female customers and whilst joking with colleagues even though i am most definitely not, i just said it in the wrong way of fhe joke being homophobic.
this was 2-3 years ago but when i look back i get terrified thinking what if someone reports me in the future or if i will be in serious trouble from what i did. thing is i awfully regret and wish i never did what i did.
worst of all i feel like nobody would believe how sorry i am and feel like i would be in serious trouble if o was reported after moving on.
i know its quite confusing but im ranting from being worried. please help with some advice and opinions.
thanks very much

Hi I remember your question from before and I was one of many who answered you. I can't say anything other than what I said before but if you can't get over this and move on my advice is to seek medical help. I am surprised you are still obsessing over this to be honest. You seem to have developed anxiety over something which happened years ago and was relatively innocuous. x
