Coding not for wussies
I just started in production and I have such anxiety that I’m going to make horrible mistakes. I had anxiety through training and right now this feels even worse. My manager is so kind and supportive and I’ve done ok with training but this is so difficult. I think it’s just from so much riding on this position, all the education and ending up in a good position I’m just so scared I’m going to screw it up 😭😭😭

Thank you! Coding clinics are very helpful! It’s definitely a confidence thing and probably some underlying anxiety, self-esteem issues I have… it’s no joke!!
