My #Daydream seems like a #nightmare

I have a #Daydream where I find the right #Job and lose my #unemployment and work 40 hours a week. It sounds like a #nightmare because a 40 hour work week is #scary for me. It takes away so much time from #Selfcare and #Recovery that it brings me to a point of #tears .

I began to do the whole #comparing myself to others and #Wondering why I could not be like another. I truly feel #helpless whenever I become #jobless

It is difficult for me to find a #Job that can work with a #Disability and not feel #stigmitized by my #employer secretly. I feel like I am this cat in the photo, in my own #World where everything around me is just blowing up. It is not that I do not #Care anymore, but it is that there is only so much I can do. I might as well take normal pictures along the way and try to be as #normal in my #Abnormal world possible.

Perhaps a "vocational" center will be #helpfull in finding a #Career rather than just a job... But I do not know how much #Stigma exists. I suppose I am just #afraid and at the same time #Brave for keeping applying and trying.

Wish me #luck !

Do you daydream?

I always found the term ‘daydream’ funny. While it doesn’t have to only mean you have them during the day, it sounds silly to say you’re daydreaming at night.

Do you find yourself daydreaming? If so, what do you daydream about? I’ll start below ⬇️

What’s your idea of a great day?

Maybe it involves an activity you enjoy, a person you love or your favorite food. Whatever the case may be, tell us what your perfect day looks like — because sometimes getting lost in a daydream can be the distraction we need to take our minds what we're going through for a little while. 💭

Dash of hope then it’s gone with voice of reason

So I didn’t get a job that I really wanted in Alaska. I still want to be in Alaska but the only way I can afford to move if I cash out on retirement. I can’t keep doing that when I want to move somewhere. It’s heart breaking and frustrating. Some districts will help with relocation costs but only when you turn in receipts. Meanwhile, I got hired on the spot to work for a state park/lake area for 1-2 months. I am quitting the Dollar General. Only had the job for two weeks but physically at my weight and standing all day, my feet and back hurt like nothing else at night. I can’t do it. Tonight I had to kneel down to get something and it took me like several tries to get up. It was humiliating and thank god there was no around. I need to lose at least 140 pounds but I always sabotage any effort with emotional eating or stress eating. I can’t keep going on like this. My feet hurt all the time. I’m just over everything. I did get a job and free for teaching in a nearby district, but pay is lower than I expected. I would be able to pay bills but nothing extra on my debt. That’s the whole point of moving to Alaska so I can get out of debt faster. But I don’t have the money to move so I will be taking the job offer. Just sucks. #Daydream #Weightissues #self -sabotage
