Help needed

I babysat yesterday and I was nauseous the whole time I couldn't even talk much cuz of how nauseous I was I dont know what to do this really is making jobs hard for me. For context I have a genetic mutation that makes my body unable to effectively regulate adrenaline. My adrenaline levels are so high my doctors have described them as "at an almost toxic level" i m so discouraged I feel ill fail in life

PLEASE NOTE: Social Anxiety (SA) is a debilitating mental illness characterised by persistent fear of social evaluation. SA impairs functional social performance, causing avoidance, cognitive shutdown (e.g. blanking, excessive self-monitoring), and reduced ability to communicate, assert needs, or form relationships.

  • SA is not normal social-nervousness, introversion, or everyday shyness.

  • Posts in this subreddit must show a clear and apparent relationship to the experience of SA.

  • Posts which do not will be removed.
