Work related anxiety

[_X_]

My anxiety mainly comes from work related situations.I'm overthinking all situations and are very afraid of making mistakes, it can keep me sleepless if I have done (or thinking I have done) a mistake.I also constantly check my emails etc.... in other words work is taking over my private life.Any other who suffer mainly from work realted anxiety and what have you done about it?
If I don't have any issues or problems hanging over me at work I will get a good sleep, but if I have any then I will have a horrible night.

I often deal with quite a bit of work related anxiety, I’m currently switching jobs right now and it’s driving me crazy, I’m worried my old job will bad mouth me I’m worried my new job will take back their offer or that something’s wrong with my new hire paperwork. As for my current job I was a team lead and the responsibility of being in charge stressed me out a lot I constantly second guessed myself and would worry about every little decision. It got so bad that I was actually screwing up on the job because I was worried so much about screwing up on the job it was a self fulfilling prophecy really. I eventually learned to trust my intuition and got really good at my job just in time for another company to give me a better offer just a few months after I took my current job. What helped me was reminding myself of what I had already accomplished and recognizing when I did something right as opposed to dwelling on my mistakes. I know it’s easier said than done when you have anxiety, but try to think back on all the times you got a compliment on a job well done or finished a work project faster than anticipated.
