I'm kind of in the same boat. The last time I worked I was severely depressed, it was a temp job that I lasted 2 days at because I kept telling the people I was working with how overwhelmed I felt. Now I'm looking for a job because (1) we need the extra money and (2) I can't stand doing nothing all day at home.

I'm scared though, just as you are. Scared that I won't be able to take the stress again since I'm still depressed (though not as severely). But just reading your thread makes me realize that if and when I am offered a job, I have to at least try. Honestly, I think a part-time job would be better for me but I don't see too many of those advertised.

Have you considered for yourself that perhaps a part-time job might be easier for you to handle? Better than doing nothing but not as much stress because you're not spending as much time doing it?
It is part-time. I thought most jobs were part-time. I'm not sure when I start. Was gonna talk with the manager about my difficulties with this pre-employment thing that isn't working for me tomorrow. Though they said like week at least before I'd start?
