How can I quit being scared to work a job?
Post Body

I’m 22 years old and i don’t work. I’m scared to idk why, i’ve never worked before. I’m finishing up an associates degree which is fully online and this would be my last semester. Then it’s off to the real world and i’m scared. I have a car and a license but i just cant gather the courage to get up and look for work and even less, going out 5 days a week commuting to work. It is really anxiety inducing. Im embarrassed cause there are 16 year olds who work after school with no fear or issues. It honestly makes me feel less of a man, but I’m just so scared. Im scared of idk, passing out on the job? Getting fired? Making a mistake? Having a mean boss? Getting injured? Running into someone i used to go to school with? Every negative thing you can think of. My mom keeps pushing me to work part time before college finishes and my dad is more chill about it. How do i go on about this?

Im studying IT but the industry is saturated, there’s too much competition, i might have to start at an MSP which is horrible, i might have to be on call further in my career, i hate customer service, physical labor jobs look attractive to me but I’m afraid of getting injured or passing out from a heat stroke.
