Re: sick of this sh*t
Hi @MDT - You really should go for the TESOL course. There are many available online and they aren't ardous at all. I have just completed one. I would suggest then that you travel overseas somewhere cheap such as Thailand. It is really very chill there and you would be able to connect with their large expat community. Go for one of the regional areas rather than Bangkok or the islands.
Often the teaching English jobs require a degree and any degree will suffice. Along with the TESOL qualification, you should be able to secure a job whilst you work on your mental health issues.

Re: sick of this sh*t
hey @soul and @TAB
Looks like i have a new student to tutor. Its only informal but i noticed that i have a bit of a knack for the intracacies of language. I guess that's important. It's also a way boosting my confidence too. It needs boosting lol. ACT has helped in that regard and so has tutoring.
its just exhausting is all
the travel idea is a good one @soul because i could probably study overseas too - but not in thailand haha. I'd prefer to go somewhere I could blend in a bit better lol.

Re: sick of this sh*t
Good on you for landing that tutoring gig. Travel really does broaden the mind @MDT. Everyone blends in in Thailand. You would be amazed at the diversity and friendliness.
Keep your options open. Hope your day continues well.

Re: sick of this sh*t
Sorry to hear that you missed out on the phone job @MDT. But you did pick up the tutoring so there has been a plus for today. What is this networking thing that you have on? Is it something to do with uni?

Re: sick of this sh*t
Stuff happens @MDT theres other jobs. Just keep applying. Blow the networking thing off then. And apply for more jobs. Lost count how many jobs I didn't get. Its the ones you do get that matter 💪😺

Re: sick of this sh*t
hey @soul
yeah it is
its an info/networking night for careers in international affairs
might be helpful for me
a friend told me about it
but i really dont wanna go because these things are rare and its a chance to get contacts etc and that can only be done when you arent socially anxious..

Re: sick of this sh*t
Your call @MDT as to whether you would get something out of it. Seems that many opportuniteies these days come from networking. A case of who you know rather than what you know.

Re: sick of this sh*t
im going just to see how it is
there is such an intellectual snobbery with these things... its more like what you haven't done vs what you have done.
its hard.. really hard... life is..
im getting desperate in so many aspects of life..
