So I am looking for my first job. My peer, who is like a caseworker but has mental health problems as well, is trying to find me a job as a peer. A peer is someone on a treatment team who has been or is still in treatment for mental health, who acts like a caseworker who can relate to the client in a way a caseworker can't. They share life experience and help with talking to the people on the caseload they have. I am planning on starting as a volunteer down at the courthouse in my county for mental health court. The only issue is to get a good job I have to take driver's training and get a driver's license. I am kinda scared to do this because I don't have a lot of money to spare and I don''t want to take the class and then fail. I am also working on another project. I have a friend who has his own publishing company and he is willing to publish my poetry. I have been waiting for a break like this since I was 16 and now its coming true. It's still scary though because I don't know if anyone will buy my book. I am thinking on sending some copies out to schools so I can show college kids and young adults my age that they aren't alone. That is one of the reasons I want to publish my work the other being that I want more income. I collect SSI but its not entirely enough for all of the things I need and want. I usually end up borrowing money and I don't want to continue doing that. Can anyone give me any advice about this nervousness and also about juggling working as a peer and my writing if I do get the job volunteering?
