  How many of us are 'perfectionists'?

  i made a medium level mistake at work today, and when i make mistakes it really shakes me up and takes me a long time to recover.

  it completely rattles me, makes me feel awful about myself.

  my mind keeps going back to the mistake reliving how i could have let it happen.

  Yes I really recognise those feelings Faye. I agree it's about years of being around judgemental people. The crazy think is 'normal' people actually don't mind if you make a mistake, they like it, shows you're human. I do still feel horror for a while after making a mistake, waiting for the sky to fall, although it doesn't last long now before the feeling subsides. Good thread, many people will relate to this I think.

  thank you all for your sincere encouragement during these last few weeks.

  I'm so sorry for your loss Minimus but I'm glad you were there with your mother to say goodbye. Look after yourself at this stressful time.
