I quit my job again

I just didn’t like it. I was doing a good job, not sure why I quit. It was $20/hr. My mom already has an attitude, so I’m just avoiding her for now.

I reckon there was stress involved. I’ve noticed, when we get stressed as people with psychotic illness - we become paralysed decisions wise

It’s ok to quit a job if you have a safety net. The more jobs you work the better your chance of finding what work has meaning in your life. Or you could be a cynic and all jobs suck. Gotta pay those bills.

That may have been it. It’s like an impulse for me and therapy doesn’t seem to help.

Yeah, that’s exactly what happened in my last two jobs. I’ve been scared ever since. It’s too unstable/unreliable for me to bet on myself in my current state. But I think it may happen eventually

Good luck to you for what you decide is next

Thanks 1515115151

As per my experience never make quick decisions wait for atleast two weeks !

I think I just need to get disability even though that’s a bad idea right now.

You can always have the plan B but for plan A is always a challenge.

You get to decide that’s freedom.

I also noticed one thing in me. Because of meds I don’t have a personal freedom in my head. It’s restricted and with my restriction I need to follow it as I don’t have a character of my own.

Yes I feel the same way. Almost like I can’t fully be myself.

I have quit like 20 or more jobs in the past 15 years. for me I think its partly adhd and partly I wasn’t getting the accommodations I needed. at least now I know I have adhd and autism so I can get the reasonable adjustments I need.

also don’t beat yourself up. if you want to find something else you’ll find the right role for you.

Thanks I needed this. My therapist tried to put me on ADHD meds but I felt I was taking too many.
