I’m going through a rough patch in life. I feel like my life is just kinda happening and I don’t have much control over it. I’m 29 almost 30. The longest I’ve been employed at a job has been less than 3 years average. Since graduating college and getting married 7 years ago I’ve moved(living situation) like 7 or 8 times. I spent 6 years in the automotive industry just to get burnt out. I have so much debt in tools. I finally got a job that I’ve been trying to get since before I graduated high-school, but my employers won’t promote me and I’m kinda done growing in my current position. I like the company and want to stay with them. However due to costs of living going up and rent in my area being expensive I have to move yet again. I had an interview with another location with my job to transfer but I don’t think the interview went well. Everything I do or try just seems to fall apart and I’m so tired and burnt out on trying. I feel like I hardly know myself as a person. I don’t know what I like or even what I want to do in life, I just keep doing what I have to to survive and not end up homeless. Idk how I got here…I feel like a failure and like I’m no good if I can’t keep working jobs. Nothing holds my attention for long and I grow out of my roles too quickly and get bored, without forward progression what’s the point of staying in a position? I’m currently in the process of packing up to move literally across country and live in my in-laws basement because I’m a failure and can’t continue supporting their daughter or myself in life anymore. Most people my age are getting set in careers and buying homes and starting a family and I’m over here just trying to stay off the street.

Really sorry you’re going through this
Literally in the same position. In currently trying to get I got therapy and physical therapy as well. Starting ADHD meds tomorrow to see if I can focus on something long enough to stay off the streets. I’m a handyman but with my ADHD staying busy 5 days a week has been hard. I suck with time management most of the time. Now we are living in an effing camper and I feel like a failure. Under tremendous pressure to get a 9-5 🤦🏽
it’s really hard to just survive by yourself. don’t beat yourself up.
