I can’t currently work but I have had several jobs in the past including postsz. The job I liked the most was video games tester, I was getting paid for playing VR games in their office from 7am to 3pm full time. I actually had fun. I was on Abilify back then. It was a dream. My second favorite job was accounting, I was using forums and reading about video games while working lol I never got caught or maybe they did not care as I have done my job well. Whats your favorite job or dream job?

I told my Dr about the video games job and he laughed, he said people don’t deserve to get paid for that job. He was mean.

A pastry chef might be cool, or a baker. I like baking but couldn’t handle the workload. I’m not fast enough… and I’m assuming they gotta be up all night/hella early to get stuff ready…
My favorite job that I’ve had was probably cleaning garbage off the sides of the highways for the department of transportation. No customer service

I don’t know. I feel it’s mostly about who you work with though. If you work with nice people a job can be dreamlike.

Mathematician and comedian.
I would also be a surgeon and do some care work and some cafe work but I want all of those jobs and I choose which jobs I take on and which times I work and for how long etc.
It’s possible i could direct , write a little on some occasion.
But mainly other jobs.

My favorite job was working as a telemetry RN (heart monitors), reading telemetry strips. I had that job for about six months. I blew it when I became hospitalized for suicidal ideation. My charge nurse said that if I was willing to kill myself, I’d be willing to kill a patient. So, she fired me. She was wrong.

I only had job related to computers and handling calls in call centers. For me best job is current job which is into researching about technical issues and questions and provide solution, workaround or guidance. It is product based and into monitoring and reporting for endpoints in big IT enterprises and even small and medium.

I was a university lecturer before the diagnosis. I like the job but I was not able to hold it. Now I would like to be a teacher at a primary school, teaching Math. I like children and would like to work with them.

I am a data analyst, but my dream job would be data science
Think I can do it one day, but I do like the variety of what I currently do
Taking projects from start to finish I enjoy doing
Would be a little worried if I was just coding all the time, and not seeing something through to completion

I don’t know if it would be my dream job but i would love to be a computer programmer when i knew more.
My profession before pychosis was called loss prevention. I would catch people stealing. But i would not like to do it where i grew up. I am tough from where i grew up but i wouldn’t dare work where i grew up.

Stand up comedian would have been a cool thing to chase if I’d never gotten sick. In another life bioinformatics would have been cool.
Edit: musician would be cool too and is actually somewhat obtainable. I’m just not actually that big of a fan of music.
