Got offered the job I applied for which is a Good Thing™ (yay) but now my brain is revolting against me and telling me to panic :(
Objectively I’m very happy, it just isn’t manifesting as joy.
Knock it off, brain! If it consoles you, I had the very same thing happening to me (I’m sure you’ve noticed)- it’ll be alright eventually. Just breathe, have a tea, do some things that make you happy to distract you. It’ll all be fine.
And most of all: CONGRATULATIONS! :D
@sweetlittlevampire thank you for your support, dear <3 I know these feelings are stupid and unproductive, and I’m doing my best to smother them in positive thinking. I just hate that I’ve accepted a few lessons which are not going to happen now. Couldn’t really have refused as long as I didn’t have a job offer, but it still feels like I’m letting people down. Also: old and new contract dates also overlap by a day which the new employer said was fine but which my scumbag brain is using against me to full effect X)
