I'm depressed because I can't seem to stick with a job for very long and have problems working. I've held too many different jobs in a short time frame

Hi there 😊

Sorry to hear that the job issue is making you feel depressed. It's surely a difficult moment for you.

Do you think you still didn't find the right work that matches with your expectations?

Have you detected the negative reasons that lead you to leave ? Maybe there's a common situation that makes you uncomfortable.

Sending you good vibes 💙

What do you think is not allowing you to stay long in a job? Your aversion to the type of job itself, or something external not job related that may affect your mood while you work?

@aquaKitten9729- Sorry to hear that you are feeling down. I know what it is like to spend a lot of time and energey looking for a new job, only to get lots of rejection responses! Hang in there. Don't give up yet.

Hello. I am sorry to hear you have trouble keeping a job. Society uses job as an indicator for success. It is totally normal to feel down when we have difficulties to fit within the standards that society imposes on us. However, it is common sense that we are not just our jobs. Of course, our jobs can often describe us, but it is not all of who we are. There are lots of qualities we hold within ourselves that make us special. Do not worry, there is no shame on not being able to keep a job. It does not make you less than. I am pretty sure you have an immense potential within you. It just needs time and some place to grow.
