Hi,

I feel sorry for all of you who don't get money from the government like I do here in Australia. And to the original poster from Singapore: I notice that Asian friends I have known have a lot of pressure from family and their community to be established status wise -and get gossiped about regarding their career and love life. ...I'm lucky that my family is small and there is less of this gossip than some of my friends have in their family.

And as for being out of work: I beat all of you for the length of time.
Although I have tried 2 full time jobs over the last year -neither of these lasted 6 months. For going on 5 YEARS now -!!!- all my jobs didn't last more than a few months (apart from the last one -6 months) ...beat that!

And G22: I like your suggestion of volunteering at an animal shelter. You're right about animals teaching humans how to live.
I'll definetly consider the suggestiong.

When I left High School two years ago I started doing a course, which I got kicked out of because of my social anxiety, the teacher said that I was obviously mentally unstable because of it and that I would be a danger to other people, even though I've never threatened or hurt anyone, and I never would.
After that I had no job for a year and a half, now I have a job where my mother works, her boss needed someone who could type over 45 words a minute....... 8O

I'm jobless but luckily I'm getting unemployment pay right now so I dont have to worry about it for at least a couple more months. I dread having to work again. :cry: And I can't work anywhere where I have to deal with people, I just can't do it. I done data entry before and that wasn't so bad cause all I had to do was sit there and type all day, it was basically just me and the computer. I did have to talk to my supervisors some, but not TOO often. But it was hard for me to talk to them sometimes to ask questions and stuff...sometimes I didn't ask questions or tell them stuff when I probably really should have. If my at home doll business doesn't work out I don't know what I'll do. Give up on living I guess. Cause there are no other jobs around here where I wouldn't have to deal with people and I just can't do it. I'm too angry and people piss me off too easily and when people I'm forced to work with piss me off it makes me either want to quit or hurt the person who's being an asshole to me. So I always have to end up quitting.

WOW :!: Your dolls are cool. Very Goth. Are those original desings you came up with? I don't think too many moms would want their children to
have on, but I think allot of people would want one. They kinda remind
me of the things Charles Manson makes in prison.

I have a very strong reaction to your art. The work is powerfull and
moving. I wish I could express better in words. I only get a feeling.
I find them strikingly dark, scary, horriable, cold, but yet amusing and funny.

Good luck..I hope someday you can see "sunshine and roses".

Thanks...yeah they're original designs... I didn't make them for children. Though I did have to give my little 7 year old cousin...she loved it. My 10 year old cousin is afraid of them. Anyway, they're really made for teens & adults(though if little kids actually like them of course I'd make one for them also--they just seem to appeal more to teens & adults).
And I don't want to see "sunshine and roses"...sunshine hurts my eyes and well, I just dont really like roses unless they're black. I like the way I am, and if I were any other way, I wouldn't be me.

Yes jobless and I do feel worthless, living off of family and friends, the only I get by, I can only think that everything happens for a reason, and that this period without a job has a reason. Its twice as bad here with no liscense lost it for six months for a speeding ticket... first one on my record too its all falling at the same time. sucks

just came out of being jobless for a year and half. I ended up having to move to virginia to get work and I dreaded it. I was full of fear over it (as I am with everything) but I knew I had to suck it up and go because not working was not an option. It has been six months now and it is hard living in a new place but I like my job and living in anxiety by being in a new city and a new job beats the depression of not working by a mile. I think you should go get a job (any job).....it will be good for you.

I can relate to you. I honestly find my strength in Jesus Christ. He is the only way I have gotten by and even though I still have anxiety I still have peace in him.

my heart rate and things i see trigger my panic so i guess working a shitty job in a casino isnt a good idea... but its what i have to do since ive been looking for a job for over a year. im hoping to get switched into vallet soon, seems like a better job for me.
 
A couple of years ago my employer allowed me to work from home. But even then I couldn't do it, so they fired me. Then I discovered Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Now I've been rehired by the same company and I'm working at the office sharing a cubicle (the last 9 months). Also I'm back at college updating my skills.
