I posted a topic about this several months ago, but things have gotten worse for me, due to my own inability to cope lately. I worked for a non-profit up until last October for many years, enjoyed the job but was taken advantage of and had no future. I left to work at another, much bigger, company. I went through 3 weeks of training for the new position and just couldn't handle the job with my anxiety and depression, just had no motivation to try. I was then unemployed for the past 6 months, until recently getting a job at a nursing home as an administrative assistant. I had been seeing a psychologist and really thought I was feeling better. However, I resigned this new job Friday due to the same anxiety and depression. I just couldn't face it. So now that is two, really 3, jobs I've resigned from in the last year. I am finally on some medication (Lexepro?) to see if it can help me get over this hurdle. I am so embarrassed and ashamed about where I'm at. Fortunately I live with my dad, who has been mostly supportive, but he is worried about me, as am I. I lost my mom and two aunts over the past 4 years, and life has been pretty bad. It's a daily struggle to get up in the morning. I really don't want to feel this way, but I just don't know how to cope anymore. I don't even know what to write on a resume to explain all the lapse of work. I even have two college degrees. I feel so silly.
Anyone ever go through something similar? Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions. I enjoy these forums as they make me feel less alone.
