So I just started a job in an office a few weeks ago. They sat me in a cubicle but their cubicles are actually those half cubicles where you only have 2 walls. Anyway, the cubicle floor is surrounded by the offices, so all day I have sustained low level anxiety because I know there could be someone behind me watching me from their office window. Furthermore, there's a lot of foot traffic in this office. So people are always walking back and forth. So there are always people moving in my periphery which makes me extremely anxious. Put these things together and you've got a recipe for 3-5 anxiety attacks per week. I sometimes wear headphones and listen to an audiobook, this allows me to be focused enough on the story that I lose awareness of whatever is happening in my peripheral vision. There are 2 problems with this though. 1. If someone needs to talk to me I get snapped out of my focus very abruptly (another anxiety trigger). 2. Not all my work is mindless enough to do this. If i need to concentrate on my work I can't listen to my book BUT my work is never so requiring of concentration that it can drown out other thoughts or senses. Lastly, the management so far hasn't been very accepting to requests like additional walls or cubicle curtains. Anyone have any ideas?
