I don't know if such a job exists! Or what it would be!

I've been looking a bit, and my mum has been looking (I know, I know!) - she seems even more eager for us (me&sis) to have jobs, I've just had fears that I wouldn't be successful in 'any' job - that I couldn't pull off full 8 hours, that I'd get overwhelmed again... Maybe I was just 'chicken', partly cause I had such bad experiences in my last two jobs...

Before my diagnosis, it was partly rebellion too, I wanted to have a different lifestyle and not 'a job', now that we get along well I wouldn't mind having a job, if it would be a good one.
I saw my mum being miserable in her life, she had a(n office) job, a husband and kids, and she was miserable. So I thought by going 'for my dreams' instead of 'settling' I'd be happy.
But truth seems to be somewhere 'in between'.

I wouldn't mind having a good job that would still allow me to pursue some of my dreams and passions and live with integrity/in line with my beliefs.
