It depends. In your experience with jobs before, has the anxiety lessened over time or has it stayed the same or increased?

I had constant anxiety due to starting a job and once I noticed I can't handle the job demands not even get there on time cause of my panic attacks and dissociative states, they told me I was fired and that I should seek professional help.

It was my realization that I can't handle a job.

If I understand it correctly. For a normal person the nervousity and anxiety fades over time as they get more familiar and confident with their work environment and tasks.

I have never experienced it. For me it's like it's the first day every day even in a job I've had for months. The anxiety was just at roof top all the time and even on the weekends, on my days off, I had anxiety attacks over going back to work on Monday.
