Nervous on social situations. History of taking antidepressants for anxiety. Restart medication?
human
Hey, I am a nurse that has been working in critical care for a little over a year, once i was on antidepressants mainly for anxiety. I am finding myself unable to do my job now because I am so nervous in social situations. I want to help people and i love what i do, i just cant do it. Should i get put back on medication?

Hi.This might be due to performance anxiety.I feel you should make a change over to preferably to general ward rather than being in ICU/CCU/CCCU or any of the units which need emergency/quick response so that it will suit your personality.Since you love your job its really a great thing to hear & you can serve utmost as long as you choose a profile which will not put you under stress.Hope this helps.Take care.
