I have been trying to get a job since I was laid off in 2012. At first I collected unemployment and was caught up with the effort to keep my home out of foreclosure. Didn't succeed. I have had about three jobs since than but each time my anxiety is so overwhelming my bp skyrockets and I end up in the hospital. I recently tried to apply for SSD but couldn't do it. My anxiety was overwhelming. I helped my son apply recently and had a mind numbing panic attack sitting in the waiting room. I don't think I will ever go there again. I have started looking for a job again. I think I can get one in the school lunch room. I have had three of those jobs but each time I only lasted a few weeks than suffered an attack of high blood pressure which sent me to the hospital or doctors office. I have new hbp meds so I am going to try again this September. I have to find a way to not get lost in feelings of panic. I need the money to pay my bills. I will try again. Just the thought of it makes me light headed. Sometimes I feel like there are too many people and everything is too loud than I am hiding in the bathroom. I need the money though.

Maybe you can get some skills to work on your own from home? Like copywriting e.g.
