Hi @tyme and @Oaktree , as you know I took a break but am now back to the regular schedule. I honestly don't know if I am up to working at all even though it's a handful of hours per week. I feel trapped by the situation I am in.
Thanks @Oaktree for the reassurance. I've reflected on your previous post and hope there is a positive response to your letter. What I take from this is your courage which is there whether or not the response is positive.
Sorry to hear that you feel a bit hemmed in with your circumstances.
What do you hope to achieve from work? Is it purely financial, or are there other considerations?
Whilst work can pay a few bills, if you don't find fulfillment, you may be future burning yourself out. However, if you find the work meaningful and energising, then it may aid your recovery.
Hi @tyme , it would be nice if I found work meaningful and energising. Maybe it might have been at a time. I don't seem to know what I want from work...work provides some basic structure, financial and social function which is good...I am rambling...mostly I am either pushing myself or dragging myself around but I put in a great effort not to show this.
Maybe it's the 'wrong' fit in terms of the role? @L-B
Maybe we can brainstorm some other ideas?
I flick through jobs every night. I get sent emails from Jora Jobs and I just like to see what's out there and what people are looking for. I wonder if flicking through these will help you find something that sparks your interest?
Yes, I flick through ads as well @tyme on Seek and Jora. I think I prefer self employment but I keep searching in case there is something more suitable.
