Q: Heart Races And I Get Shaky At Work
asked by: JacobRyan on December 13th, 2007

I work at a resturaunt, and there are times we get quite busy. Always during the rush I feel jittery, more than I think I should because I know exactly how the situation should be handled. I also have an increase in heart rate and I find it hard to talk to people during these times. On one occasion I kind of blacked out and was bussing a table one minute and standing at the back dishwasher the next. Is this normal?

I've had similar problems and found that my anxiety is always highest when I am in a big crowd of people. I was recently diagnosed as having general anxiety disorder and I suspect that you may have something similar. I tend to get the increase in heart rate and shaky feeling when I'm in the middle of a class room and I think it's got something to do with social anxiety or something.

Work is the most prominient place for anxiety to be at its highest. All you can really do is the best you can and you have to realixe that. You can only give 100% and not 150%. If the work load is to much, then you may have to look for something else if this is causing you so much stress. Believe me, it's not worth it in the long run. You health and sanity should always come first and upmost.
