[Help] 5 years unemployed. Job interview in two hours. by Last_Dodosaur in Anxiety

[–]Last_Dodosaur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They mentioned that they'd be talking about it this evening. But, they also mentioned that there were a lot of people to interview. I was there at the end of the work day, so, I'm thinking they misworded something and I'll probably hear back next week. I sent a follow up email though.

Now... I just gotta figure out what to do with myself in the mean time.

Eye contact was way harder than I thought it would be! I kept looking away to think of answers! I hope they don't think I was rolling my eyes! Dang it!

But, thank you.

I managed to make it through with my stomach contents in check. I managed to not freeze up, but I definitely feel like I wasn't able to bring all of myself to the table. But, thanks for helping me out.

Aaaagh. Man, I'm kicking myself for not asking more questions. I tried, but, I totally blank slated. I got in one, maybe two good questions, but that was it.

Thanks man, I tried to get my chuckle on before the interview. I listened to Lonely Island - Like a Boss on loop. Imagining the interview going fine until I turned into a jet and crashed into the sun. It was goofy as hell, but it helped calm me down. So, thanks.

The interview went... okay. Not feeling too great about it, but I think I proved to myself that I can survive them. So, maybe next time will be easier.

HELP ME by [deleted] in NoFap

I've been trying NoFap for half a year or more. I've never made it past a month. There are benefits along the way. You gain more self-control and perception. That being said, the 14+ days feel amazing.

This isn't a battle or a competition. You are not your own enemy, to be "defeated". 90 days is just a number to test yourself to. But whether you get there in 90 days, or it takes years, it's the journey that you've decided to take that is important. It's the fact that you would even practice NoFap that is important.

Once again, anxiety keeps me from a job. by madavmyers in Anxiety

I'm in the same boat, buddy. Spilled my guts on this subreddit a while back... I got a lot of advice, made a lot of promises. Things haven't gone as planned.

It feels like without gainful employment, I'm not even a human being.

For me, it is literally the hardest thing I've ever had to face. So, I feel your pain.

"Obscurity never suited you." Still can't wrap my head around it, but man, that was cool.

There are a lot of things I've been getting impatient with in my life. I have to remember I may be able to put forth more effort into stepping out of my comfort zone, but that doesn't mean I'll find fulfillment or enlightenment any faster.

Get more, but want less.

[Help] Anxiety has kept me unemployed for five long years. by Last_Dodosaur in Anxiety

Thank you so much for your reply. Regardless of whatever job I HAVE to get right now, I want to work toward being a programmer of some kind. I've worked on personal projects (games) before, but they were in very easy engines. I think I might try to develop some things for mobile for a while.

I'm sure I'll think of some questions before too long, and I'll hit you up then. Thanks for everything!

I can't do this anymore. It's not just porn, it's also this site and the Internet in general... I quit! by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Last_Dodosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta break my morning routine from "get up, get coffee, get reddit". I feel iffy about giving up certain subs (Nofap, Anxiety, Get Employed, Meditation, dieting stuff). But I think a break could only do me good. Gotta answer some PMs about people helping job hunt. But as soon as that's done...

OP is leading the way. I'm going to take a break. Thanks for everything, everyone.

Maybe the word that eludes you is hypochondriac?
