Is it normal for me to be scared to get a job or get started in a college? I am married and my husband is going to school has a job and is doing great with life. My side of life is pretty sad i have had some tours with colleges and i get scared i get cold feet and then i dont know if its the profession i want. I have turned in job appliations dont hear back and it just kills my hopes and makes me not want to keep trying because i dont get a call back. And if i were to get one i would be scared that i would SUCK at it and i would get fired. I dont know what to do i am trying to figure it out. I talked to my mom on the phone today who is thousands of miles away and i tell her all this and honestly she made me feel dumb she was kinda nice and at the same time made some comments like its time to put the big girl panties on which made me feel like a retard and a little less unacomplished with myself. Any suggestions? mind exercises? Things besides what i am writing are pretty hard for me right now i am down on myself and life.

    It's normal to be scared of moving one, the unknown. But, you have to stop being scared at some point and move on. You need courage! Go to college. It could be online or off. Offline might be better because, dealing with others who are in the same situation might motivate you more.

    You are afraid of failure. I didn't think I was college material until I was a junior. Now I have a masters degree. Take an online course and slowly increase your confidence.

    That is soooo normal! I have 5 years of medical experience and the thought of having to ever have to find a new job still scares the hell out of me! Can't live life scared of the unknown gotta put ur big girl panties on and dive In head first! Before u know it ull find a job and make friends... And just about every working individual at some point in their lives gets canned. It sux but it's part of it.... U pick up and move on. Good luck!

    just find something your interested in go online and send an application to a college or maybe take an onlie course like ics. College is great bit boring but still good. there is a lot of people in the college over 19 im 18 and have got friends there who are 23 20 etc.

    get a quilification in something you like then go for the job
