They say it's a myth that people with psych dx's can't tolerate stress on the job. That implies that they can tolerate stress. But the facts state that not everyone finds the same things to be stressful - which implies that if the person with a psych dx can find a job they don't find stressful - even if others might find it to be stressful - they'd be successful. That just leaves you back at finding a non-stressful job.

I agree. That was my reading of it as well.
Stress definitely makes my symptoms worse, and I've started to wonder if I'm more susceptible to stress because I'm struggling part-time on a course most people manage full-time and have part-time jobs/voluntary positions as well. I really worry about having to get a job when my course is over
