I’m not and I kind of get down about it. I am University educated but I’m not terribly suited to the professions as such and I know it is expected for women in 2017. Society and the economy has been restructured in such a way that women have to be/are pressured to be commensurate with men in all things. To my view, it is becoming slightly an Orwellian dystopia and the stress is immense. I’m not presently working due to low mood and anxiety. I have recovered from schizophrenia. But, even if I was I would most likely be vastly underemployed as a sales assistant when I had been on track to be an art historian or curator.
Me neither. I always need an external force to push me to do something. Like some kind of Super Ego that will remind me how I need to work. I have very little motivation and ambition.
I would like to be a career woman seeing as I am 45 with no marriage or kids
At present I can do volunteer work by am hoping to get paid some time but I don’t know I might never be able to work paid but it’s something to aim for
Im a housewife but I would like to write and paint on the side and earn by that. I don’t know how i will fare at a job because my motivation is still not so good.
