Background: Was a confident occupational therapist when i was working at a small nursing home at my past job. Literally, knew everyone, was charismatic, got along with patients great, and was never flustered since the work was so easy to me. It was a nice, small environment and I was rarely stressed. I definitely would've stayed if I had better work hours.

​

Fast forward to now, I am working at fast paced hospital, and it's like I am a deer in head lights. The pay is much better, but the hours are long and stressful. The documentation style at this place is like trying to navigate through a maze. On top of that, I find myself competing against another new hire who's has a lot more experienced than I do, brown noses my boss (or seems like it to me), and I can't help but feel incompetent at times. Just today I accidentally treated the wrong patient because I was so flustered. The confidence I had at my old job is completely gone. It's like someone snipped my ballsack. So red pillers, what are your tips to kill it a new job? I know confidence comes with time and practice, but is there anything I can do now to just relax myself a bit?
