I miss my friends there. I will have been there 18 years past June.

I still frequently dream about my last job, but no I don’t want to go back. Just making money feels empty to me.

I was really good at my job. Over the years I’ve helped a lot of people.

I dream about going back to work, too. I really loved my last job. I want to go back one day. Hopefully soon.

I think about going back a lot. They said I could have my job back when I’m ready. It’s been 5 years.

maybe you could get back to working someday.

I need the money so im going to have to go back to work soon, but I could live the rest of my life guilt free if I never worked another day of my life. I had some friends at the golf course but no big deal, I can make some new friends.

Not working at the same place full time has a lot to do with why it is so difficult for me to make friends.

I never had a real job/career. My best ( highest paying ) was part time retail. I tried going to school but got sick.

Sometimes, I want to work other times I dont. I dont think I can work, competitively. I need help and assistance. I have a lot of anxiety. I get depressed and have cognitive symptoms. Like I get memory problems or my frontal lobe doesn’t work like it used to. I get overwhelmed.

Eventually, I’ll need to get a job. I mean I’ll need to work and pay the pills when it is just me. Maybe a couple years from now. It will probably be low skilled labor like retail or something.

I wish more for myself.

Don’t give up, @insidemind. In my twenties, I could barely hold a job. Now I’m in my thirties, and I have a full-time job and a master’s degree. I live on my own. I did this in part because I didn’t want my parents to worry about who would take care of me after they die. If you wish more for yourself, don’t give up. My frontal lobe doesn’t work like it used to either, but I’m doing OK.
