Becoming frustrated with the difficulties at work. I feel as though I have no support from my coworkers and am constantly questioning if I am making the right decisions. Management and those above me are blatantly rude and not helpful.
I think the task was simple enough which made it enjoyable
no
I dont like thinking I might say the wrong thing and hurt the person feelings.
Nothing I can think of

I've been better. I'm overly anxious and feeling depressed about work.

What is happening at work that makes you feel likes that?
assistant
Question
I just feel like im not getting the support I need. I'm relatively new at my job, so I go to the more senior staff for advice, but I seldom ever get help.

I see, is there anyone you could talk to at work that could possibly help you?
assistant
Restatement or Paraphrasing
I have a couple of coworkers that have been helpful, but we don't always work together. And their help isn't always the best, or the type of support I am looking for.

I can see how that would be difficult. Maybe if there is something specific you need help with, you could ask a coworker or senior staff.

Yeah, it has been very difficult. Do you have any reccomendations? Or what would you do in the situation? I generally do do that. Sometimes I get the help I need, others not so much. So i feel like im second guessing myself a lot, which puts me under a lot of stress.

Since you are relatively new it is understandable that it may be difficult. I would see if there is someone I could confide in. They may be understanding.
assistant
Question
I think thats a good idea. I am concerned it may not work out. What would i do then?

Is there something specific you are feeling you need more help with? Maybe the people you are asking do not understand exactly what you need help with.

Decision making and the little details are where I am struggling. I've had adequate training, but i still feel as though I lack the expertise needed to do my job well. Someimtes I get the support I need, and other times i don't. I'm wondering what i should do in times where I am not getting the support I need if its not available.

That is understandable. I have been in situations where I had to make difficult decisions at my job too. Overtime you will be gaining experience and it will most likely get easier or you'll get better.
assistant
Affirmation and Reassurance
Yeah, you're right. I think it will just take time for me to get comfortable and gain confidence in my abilities.

If there are situations you've found difficult, maybe you could practice making decisions in those circumstances, or ask coworkers what they have done in those times as well.
