I do wonder if it's holding me back. My Psych nurse thinks I should start looking for a job. I would like to, I just don't have much confidence in myself to show up. I'm kind of an emotional person. I can have distorted thoughts. I AM doing better, with showing up to things I say I'm going to do these days. But I could do so much better. I wonder if I could at least apply to some places. My other option, I think, is to make a daily schedule and stick to it like it's my job, and volunteer someplace regularly. And then reassess in like 3 months.

I hadn't worked for 7 years while I was staying home with my child, then I went back to work full time. It's been 2.5 weeks. I love it.
