Anyone with similar issues really struggle to hold down employment? The longest I've ever had a job was 7 months and it completely wiped out my sense of self and my mental health completely crumbled. I have not been able to hold a job longer than a month since. I haven't even had a job for over two years now. It's incredibly embarassing but I genuinely don't think I can do it
Hey, im in the same boat. My last actual job lasted about 8 months, and then I worked somewhere for 2 shifts and had to quit. It's hard. The feelings of guilt and worthlessness are hard to handle too. But my best advice is to take your time. No matter if it takes you a year, 10 years, or you're never able to go back, you're still valid and worthy of love and a good life. Try going applying for disability if you haven't, so you at least have some money of your own while you recover and get better. I wish you luck on your journey, things will get better! 💜
