Is it normal to feel sad/depressed in your last week at a job? I seemed to have lost my excitement about my new job too. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Totally normal. It’s hard to say goodbye. Remember why you decided to leave in the first place and trust yourself on that. If you can’t get comfortable with it anymore, you probably don’t have to leave if you don’t want to!

It’s a normal feeling, especially since the next place is going into the unknown. I’ve gone to some jobs I’ve really regretted taking but I left those and found one I’m so glad I took a chance on. Some other stories of this and some advice in this thread:

If you don’t like it you may have an opportunity to boomerang right back to where you are. Figure it’s worth a shot if you made it this far.

Hopefully you have a good relationship with a boss or coworker. If not you can contact the hiring people. There is a substantial cost with hiring and training employees. So if you leave on good terms, explain why it didn’t work out, it is possible they may consider having you back if there’s an open position or will possibly put you on the short list for future prospects.
