The first step you should take is to simply talk to them. Your boss might not even realize you feel this way.
I know this sounds incredible intimidating, so it’s a good idea to write down what you want to say to them.
Ask yourself what they could do to help you feel supported, then relay that to them in a professional manner. Try not to start with “you don’t” when you’re explaining what’s going on and refrain from bringing up coworker opinions at this point.
According to THIS post on Indeed, you should first contact your boss to set up a meeting. Rehearse what you’re going to say and keep notes. Be proactive about discussing solutions. Â
Being prepared with a list will be beneficial for both of you.Â
