Still struggling with work and stress

Still struggling with work and stress

Well back again. After months of searching I've managed to find a pick packing job that's long and frustrating and I'm still no closer to achieving anything with my life. I desperately want to quit but if I don't I have to move in with my parents and every day just keep getting worse. I'm so tired of every good in my life being followed by another horrible nightmare. The only thing that keeps me going are some of my friends who say my work is good that my photos and videos are great. But employers and others won't give me a chance. I try so hard to be positive but I honestly don't know about this year.

Hey @Shirazchurch ,

Thanks for sharing. I hear your frustrations and concerns.

I'm glad you were able to secure a pick packing job, but I'm mindful it is not what you are looking for as a career path.

Maybe it's something you can stick with until you find something else?

Well everyone keeps saying it might be to hang on but it's too much some days. I had a full break down last week from it and they decide to make me only work four days but I just want to quit outright

If you feel that is the best decision for you, that's totally okay too. We are here to support you with whatever you decide. @Shirazchurch

Besides work, what you have been doing for your own self-care?

I've mostly been seeing my friends when they are able to do photos or just hang. I saw two of them today for lunch and painting that help me through the day.
