I have seen that when i feel really low i can come here, chat a bit, explain what's wong and then i feel better but at the same time i feel worse because it ALL comes up. i need to talk but i know it will end up with me getting worse ..... its already happened, so i know. it's a catch 22. im just so tired of it.

i'll give it a try anyway. here's the problem:
on monday i have an interview with people who's supposed to help me find a job but im scared of talking and saying how bad i really am, that they say i cant work and this means no money. on the other side, if i seem too good. they'll look for heavy jobs and i am not capable of staying 4 hours a day, go figure for a full time job.

im just scared i guess.

any opinion?

well if u don't tell the truth eventually they find out these people who are helping u find a job tell them what type of job you will have the best chance of keeping it I think working is good for us but it seems like people don't want us to be happy to work they want us to be all stressed out and make it difficult to work..

I'm really impressed that you set up an interview to obtain employment.
My wish for you is that you find the confidence in yourself to pull thru this and find a really good assignment and yes, being honest with them will help the find the best fit for you.
Good Luck tommorow.
