Working is very hard for me. I am capable of actually doing work itself, but consistently getting along with other people and not freaking out is very, very hard for me. Also, I tend to over commit myself and then get extremely overwhelmed then freak out more, then over commit more...the cycle is really never ending. I eventually get resentful for being taken advantage of and a million other things and leave. This has pretty much happened at every single job I've ever had.

I haven't had a full time job since 2006 and haven't worked at all since June of 2008. Its extremely hard and believe me, its not because I'm lazy or a slacker.

Edit:
I do have a bachelor's degree in English. So its not like I have/had no goals in my life, its just very, very hard to maintain sanity while working with people.
