What are the best accounting/finance jobs for people with social anxiety? I'm an accountant (wfh) in industry and I just can't keep going like this. Everyday I'm anxious, and panic everytime someone reaches out to me or I have to reach out to someone else. I've spent years in therapy and it hasn't helped much. I'm tired of fighting this and I'm currently looking for a job that will work for my social anxiety. Any ideas?

I am in computers and IT industry - I had thought this is low people interaction but looks like it is not the case - there is still lots of people interaction in jobs like programming, testing which I had thought were mostly jobs to work on your own. I also thought the same about accounting but now hearing from you that even that has people interaction too…

Diagnosed with ADHD at 40. Tried Vyvanse for a couple of months. It works in terms of depriving grogginess, afternoon post meal crash, and suppressing appetite (at times).

However, I still needed help planning/prioritizing my day,  listening and active note taking, and keeping myself accountable. So decided to replace meds with coffee. Also, the fact that most people on meds had to progressively increase their medication over time did not sit well with me. (cont'd)

Something that I didn't fully realise until recently is that almost everyone, regardless of industry, role or location, are showing signs of burning out. The 'new norm' is dealing with mental health issues, feeling tired, unmotivated or fed up. This helped me cope with it... I'm not alone, it's not just me... Sadly, very few team/project leads know or are willing to use empathy.

The best thing for my anxiety and depression has been admitting to myself I despise my job and career, and likely the corporate world, and that attempting to continue climbing the ladder was causing pretty much all my mental turmoil. Moving up the ladder is a fools errand. Every day my mind was fighting me for trying to get promoted because I knew it was meaningless. So with that said, mental health has been best it’s been in a long time. For anyone else in a similar boat, hope it helps.
