Can't work

Tina

I'm disappointed in myself for being so poorly equipped and incapable of dealing with life. 

I had a job interview, I just got through it, and they agreed to give me a trial morning. The trial went horrible. My anxiety caused attacks, I got overwhelmed and had several meltdowns and a seizure. I ended up going home early, a sad wreck.. they have been in touch and won't be giving me the position because it's not a role I'm suited to.

I'm never going to work. I don't see me being able to overcome the hurdles in my life because it's a constant battle against me. And I can't fight myself.

  • I can only get work if someone else does my applications, which means apart fro a 16 year period when I had someone to do that I've either had no work, or intermittent work.

    Once I got my Autism diagnosis I know why, and obtaining work, was relegated to room 101.

    recently my inbox has started filling up with well paid work of a type I am very suited to, on job looked so up my street that I tried an application, both the usual way using my C.V. held on file, and also directly reaching out to the recruiter to explain my issues around the applicatopn process.

    Imagine how delighted I was to receive an email inviting me to call the recruiter on the telephone.

    I got a lovely chat where I got to explain myself, which ended with "send me your C.V..."  

    I rarely lie, but the alternative was to scream at the lady, so I said yes I would, and walked away from the pointless activity and went back to bed.
