What is your personal limit to what you can do and what you not do having S.A?

2 years ago I had taken a job in a group home night time 12 hour shifts. I originally thought that I'd just be kind of just chillin making sure the folks were still in bed and what not because this was what I was told after about 3 weeks of training which was not as bad as I thought but when I look back this is when I started smoking about 2 packs a day, my medication went from 10mg to 40mg in a matter of 2 weeks but that still isn;t the worst. When I finally got to the job it was not as they said...I was told to simply watch the 2 girls and every 2 hours check and see if they needed changed. it really was no bigie hey if you wanna pay me 9 bucks an hour to change a diaper that fine with me. Well what actually happened on this night was I had to watch 5 folks, clean, and give each one a shower or bath...I ended have 3 panic attacks and I barphed 2 or 3 times. I poked one of the people with a tooth brush with tooth paste on it in the eye, I got crap, and pee on me. by the time I came home I literally felt like I was going to die. I was chain smoking like crazy. I said to myself if I have to go back there I think I might actually kill myself.

This is where say nope I'm not going to even consider it.

I can do anything short term, but certain jobs such as waiter, cashier or phone sales are something I could not do for years on end.

This is kind of tough to answer, because I can approach people, it's just I never do unless it's absolutely necessary for work or something.

I have a lot of limits. I don't know how many are truly real, or ones I am just putting on myself.

I couldn't do a job that works with people the whole time. My mom works in retail, I could never do it. It's people constantly.

I can't really go anywhere alone, especially because I can't drive.

I went to the library the other day with my mom, I thought I could really handle that. Well, it was around 4-5 o'clock and there was tons of people there. Probably because school had just let out. I was surprised at how many people where there and I was uncomfortable, even though no one paid me any attention.

So, my limit is going anywhere alone.
