I've been feeling really anxious lately.

Oh no, what's been bothering you?
human
I've been trying to avoid any further criticisms after someone criticized me a few weeks ago.
gpt
I'm sorry to hear that. What happened?
human
I made a mistake at work and my boss called me out on it in front of everyone. Ever since then, I've been monitoring my behavior and seeking reassurance from others that I'm behaving appropriately.

It's understandable to feel that way after being criticized, but you don't need to constantly seek reassurance from others. You can trust your own judgment.

I know, but I just don't want to mess up again.

You can't control everything, and mistakes happen. What's important is how you handle them and learn from them.

That's true. Speaking of mistakes, remember when I talked to you about feeling guilty a few weeks ago?

Yes, I remember. How have you been doing with that?

I've been working on apologizing to the people I've wronged and trying to make things right. It's helped me feel less guilty.

That's great, I'm proud of you for taking the initiative to make things right.

Thanks, it hasn't been easy but I feel like it's important to take responsibility for my actions.

Definitely, taking responsibility is a crucial step in growing as a person.

Speaking of growth, I've also been trying to stay informed on current events. I check the news every day to learn about what's happening in the world.

That's a great habit to have. It's important to stay informed and aware of what's going on around us.

Yeah, I feel like it's important to educate ourselves on what's happening so we can make informed decisions and be active citizens.
