I honestly don’t know what to do now
I quit my job for my mental health issues persisting in making me more unwell
But now I have no proper income, and Covid-19 has stopped things as business as usual
I am going to be broke in a few months.
I should have had more resolve and persevered with my old job.
I am ■■■■■■
Don’t you get money for the corona thing?
We get 1000$ each month here in Canada but I give it all to my parents so they can take care of me.
The help in England is not enough for someone in my position
If I had not quit my job I would have got 80% of my salary from the government
And you want to take on 80k debt?
Which would be for funding a proper career change
i don’t have money too.I had a lot of saving,but after marriage 3/4 of my saving is spent
No offense, but thats crazy. I have no debt. No income though besides ssi. I’m looking into computer science. I’m worried about incuring loans around 10-20k max. Probably less for a degree. Not sure I can do it. If I fail, I have to pay it back. I would get financial aid since I’m poor and it might even be free. Software developers make 50-80k starting off in California.
Perhaps get a job if you can to pay for nursing?

Are you claiming a disability allowance?
I get some but it’s no where near enough to pay my bills.
Disability covers 25% of my out goings and I will be lucky to still get that in a years time when they re-assess
Damn, why you quit your job in the first place? I mean was is a decision made in few days or you were constantly thinking to quit for months?
I was having relapses every 3-4 months and constantly going off sick.
The stress and anxiety mainly dealing with other people made me very ill
I was unable to cope and had no other choice at the time.
Now I face the consequences.
Can I ask what was the job? I’ve lost my job due to relapse and took me a year to come back to job market. Have you also changed meds? I’ve come back on meds who has more side effects but I am able to work on them
I was a data analyst for a marketing firm
My meds have not been stable for the last 6 months. I am having to cope with so many changes that I don’t even know what is helping and what is causing me problems with side effects
@Joker you did whaf you have to do with your old job. You were so sick you nearly died. Quitting that job saved your life. You might go into a lot of debt now, but at least you are alive.
Can you go on the meds that you were stable on them? I mean I don’t want to sound harsh, but it usually requires 1 year of being stable to return to job market for us SZ. I would recommend to go back to live with the relatives if you not planning to find a job soon. That’s why I did and I already put then in financial difficulties, the longer you stay the harder is gonna get. Sometimes you have to start from a step 1
Sorry I forget how bad it was at my previous job.
I am just starting to get myself tied up in knots about what the future holds as it’s scary not knowing how I can support myself and I cannot see a reasonable way out of this situation
I cannot live with relatives. I have a flat with a mortgage to pay and I cannot afford to sell as that costs a lot of money, so in effect I would have to default on my payments and then they would re-possess my flat worst case
Did you buy the flat before SZ? My only sensible advice would be to get back at working a low end job just to pay rent
jobs come and go.
Time for a new resume
on personal strengths.
mine are Passion, Creativity, Flexibility, Quick Learner…
