I really wish I could work. I feel bad that I can’t help my husband tackle our medical debt.

How long do you spend with friends or at the gym? Maybe you can work 3 hour shifts at a relaxing job

An hour or two, i cancelled gym 3 weeks ago but thinking about going back, now i train at home. I am not confident enough to work, I think i will only last max 3 weeks, i tried before and i quit lots of jobs after 2 weeks up to a month, only one job i lasted a year in accounting

Maybe you need to work for something you are passionate about? Im going thru the same thing as you. But ive noticed im more willing to risk my fears and overcome anxiety when pursuing something im interested in.
Physics is kinda life saver for me atm.

I really get this. I quit every job I go into. I don’t know why I do this. It frustrates me.

Did you get diagnosed with autism in the end? have you heard back from them?
Because for you it might be passion. It might be that you need to do something that you feel greatly about? I feel like it is for me. but I haven’t gone back to work just yet

I tried this with photography. It turns out that it can not only make you even more miserable (brides!), but also make you hate that which you used to love.
