Yeah I know that everyone has problems. That's the real issue: I can't hide my feelings even when I really want to.
The other thing is my personal life is the only way that I would really stand out including my struggles with mental issues. I could say "I work well under pressure" but anyone can say that. I am still struggling even today but the fact that I have been able to deal with it as well as I have makes working doable. It's only the rejection that I can't take. I just feel upset that I have to hide it because the experiences that I have make me more resilient towards bad situations. For instance if a customer was rude I could just shrug it off and am still able to help them because for me there is much worse they could be doing.
My childhood has also probably helped shape me into finding earning money important so at least for me I guess I am my experiences. So why do I have to hide them?
