Hello All,
I am new here and really need some advice. I have been struggling with anxiety for a while and it is getting to the point that it is interrupting daily life. I specifically have a lot of anxiety related to work. I am currently on Cipralex, am going to see my therapist, and thankfully have a very understanding boss.
I work in a call centre and therefore am obviously not allowed to swear while on the phone. We do have what they call mute buttons so that we can talk to each other or if we are having a bad call we can put the mute button on so the person on the other end of the line won't hear us.
Anyways, I was having a bad day the other day and whatever. I was just sitting there listening to the phone ring and all of the sudden the phone picked up and I went to take the mute button off and then tried to say something only to realize the mute button was on, which either means it wasn't on or because I tried to take it off in a hurry, I took it off and bumped it so it went back on. Anyways, I was trying to pronounce this guys name while I waited for him to pick up the phone and for some reason I have myself convinced he heard me swear (which makes no sense because I have no reason to think I swore... sometimes I mouth off to myself when I'm not on the phone/mute button is on if I've had a bad call). But still I think I'd remember it and not doubt doing it or the guy would've called in to my supervisor. This is not the first time I've thought this has happened and been wrong. I feel so stupid.
Anways, I don't know why I feel like this, but it has me very worried. Help would be really appreciated?
