I'm sure sorry about the peer specialist job. I know how proud you were of that and I'll bet you were great at it. But I'm glad you were wise enough to know it was too much and to take care of yourself by getting a job that's less intense. I certainly couldn't do it...I was in training to be a crisis counselor for the Crisis Text Line and got triggered by a role-play in which I had a suicidal texter, and I quit right there. I was stable, but it wasn't enough to override my basic instinct for self-preservation.
Anyway, it's good to see you hanging in there and keeping your head high. Be proud. Live well.
