Work is the biggest trigger

190E(Taylor’s version)

So ive had a dsy from hell filled with every negative autism can throw all becuase of a bad day at work last night roped by the fact an ex manager who’s helping us out at the Moment double checked my till and did it wrong and made out I’d miscounted it 

is it too much to ask for to have a job thats a case of your not given unreasonable expectations above your pay grade and can be left at work 

how am I ever to get to the point of having a part time music buisness if work is all consuming as it is

current guess at when I might be gig ready? Spring 2026 

What’s the plan until the  settle down in a better work snd personal life snd enjoy the music of other people whilst mabie doing thr odd bit here and there

    Wow i wish I could only do 2.5 but being a swiftie who loves the cirucs and plays guitar and wants to learn bass isnt cheap (that said i am not a snob and am happy with my cheap begginers bass) I try to he as little into materialistic things as I can but I feel that sometimes ro be happy as an autistic person you have to find a balance (my bootleg Taylor tapes and officual Taylor CDs make me happy as does my other CDs and tapes) 

  • As a fellow retail worker, I feel your pain. My work is my biggest stressor too. I dread every day I go in. Definitely a mental game. One way to look at it is that your work is just something you do on a day off, it does ease the pain a bit. I don’t how many days you work, but the 2.5 I do is enough. Don’t lose hope. 

  • I find work the biggest trigger for my anxiety. I spend more time in tears about work and not being able to stop crying. I have learned to allow myself a bit of time to cry, resettle myself and then face people again. It’s very hard when the downward spiral is coming and I know I cannot stop it once it starts.
