So today my mother has a day off work. As usual it's time to hear a lecture from her about how i need to get a job, or get some help. Although I've suffered from anxiety for almost 4 years I've never got any help, and I'm quite against it...or afraid of it. I don't feel like anyone can help me, but i feel maybe I can work it out eventually on my own.  I'm now 23 years old and I do realise I can't rely on my parents for much longer, so something has got to change quickly.

I think the dreadful jobs in warehouses played a big part towards my depression and anxiety, so I really cannot possibly work in one again. I left the last one as i couldn't handle the depression, anxiety and the boredom, so there's no way I'm going back.

I have tried many ideas of working from home, but none have yet turned out too good. I am willing to keep trying to become a freelance graphic designer as I love it so much!

On another note, It's nice to have found this place and I look forward to chatting to some of you!


P.S. This is the first blog entry i have ever written anywhere, so i hope i've used it correctly hehe.

You are on the right track, by coming to this site, and in a way asking for help by means of support and possibly getting some awswers. Or at the least, finding out you are not alone.


You don't have to be misersable, though. There are good therapists out there, and some gentle meds to help the serotinin in your brain to readjust.


Good luck to you and take are of yourself.
