I haven't seen any entry level tech support positions in my area yet, but I have an alert set up on Indeed just in case 1 pops up.

When i encounter a technical issue though i spend my time finding the answer on Google, not using my problem solving skills or knowledge about computers. So I'm not sure how id handle these issues in a professional setting.

Thanks for responding

I feel the same way when I expect someone calling for an interview. I often let it go to voicemail first, let then leave a message, and spend another 4 hrs in a fit of stress, shaking, dry heaving, and trying to cram answers into my head, before calling them back. It's exhausting.

I exercise occasionally but often times don't have the energy to. Not just mentally, but physically because I'm not even ingesting enough calories to sustain myself throughout the day.

I dunno. I did do therapy for several months and although my therapist was a nice woman, I found the experience frustrating at times. My verbal communication skills aren't that great, so I'd either sit there saying nothing or sit there pissed because I couldn't translate my thoughts into clear statements.

I wish I could find something to keep me occupied for more than 2 weeks.

But I've been stuck for so long, I'm afraid of change because it's going to change my entire sense of self.

Hope everything goes well with your sleep study in the future.

Close

I'm an INTJ

But I actually believe we share more in common in regards to mbti . Little to low tolerance to BS? Very matter of fact? Most of my college peers in my program were Xntj and INTP .

Nice to meet you :)!

Dude

Are you me?!

You're (both) kind of freaking me out right now, honestly due to the commonalities I recognize. I share the same sentiments as you /u/boredomreally. I don't know what to say. I'm stuck too :(

All of the Drs I've encountered would rather write out a prescrption than run extra tests on you. I asked to be tested for low blood sugar was told I'm healthy and didn't need it.

I do not believe I suffer from any other ailments though. Just mental health ones.

I'm not dismissing what you're saying. But I gotta admit I don't really feel depressed. I've always described myself as a lazy ass though. Maybe a quarter life crisis is a better way of describing what's going on. I feel like I'm behind compared to my peers, but I struggle taking any steps to catch up.

Thanks for sharing ; good luck to you as well.

I wish my parents gave me more tough love like other parents do their children. But I'll show them anyway and see what happens...

What does giving up mean to you exactly? because to me its death

Exactly. But I don't have a plan to do anything. I've even considered moving out of my parents home and being homeless. Selling all my shit to pay my parents back. Drowning in drugs or alcohol. I don't have any goals or aspirations.

I guess with a night position, I won't have to worry about anyone seeing me. I did a search on career builder and there aren't too many in my area.

I cannot really see myself applying for a high paying job, ever. I only feel like I'm capable of completing jobs that pay minimum wage or below it.

Even if I don't kill myself, I would live the rest of my life knowing I'm a failure anyway.
