Hating life

Man. The past few days I’ve been really unhappy. I’m just sick of everything. I’m tired of not working. I’m tired of being home every day all day with nothing to do. I’m tired of feeling “off”. Just plain sick and tired.

I applied to a job and have an interview on Monday. Looking for 15-20 hours a week. It’s for the Olive Garden. I worked there for 5 years in my early twenties. I liked it. It was a lot of stress though. However the position I applied for is as a prep cook. Which has much less pressure. What I’m hoping is I just go in to do pasta during the week. Pasta is soooo easy. Literally dump pasta into a big ass container and boil it. Set the timer. The times are on the wall. And stir for a while. That’s it.

It’s been two years since I’ve worked. I’m a little nervous that I’ll get paranoid at work and have to leave early the first day. Ever since I got schizophrenia new things make me super nervous. I’ll just smoke my CBD constantly and get through the day.

Anyone else just plain tired of life?

Thanks. I should get out of this funk. My days have just become really repetitive. Watch the puppy, clean up pee and poop, walk around the yard. Do nothing else. I need a late night of video games or something.

I posted the same thing yesterday so yes. Except that I know I can’t work on my current meds due to negative symptoms.

I worked in restaurants for about 5 years too. I worked all the positions in the kitchen but prep cook was my favourite job, definitely the least stressful.

I also worked every position at the Olive Garden. I had perfect review scores so I applied to be a manager. Little did I realize you need math skills and I bombed the test

I’m tired too, and tired of being tired

I’m being charged a lot in my studies and this is stressing me because I can’t study many subjects at the same time. I am slow and weak with learning due to Negative Symptoms

I hear ya. This past week I’ve just been so sick of everything about it. The negative symptoms get me the most.
I got a puppy. I thought it would help me. But I’m honestly having a hard time keeping up. I kinda miss being able to sleep all day if I needed to. It’s selfish of me but puppies are hard. I’m looking forward to when she gets older and can hold her pee longer.
