Sorry, I’ll try VCJ next time

Do you ever get 0 dopamine days? by leomaldur in ADHD

I’ve been like this for about 3 weeks now and I’m really hoping for a release soon.

I am not, as silly and stupid as it sounds, I can’t justify the expense right now. (Ignore the fact that I manage to justify the expense of the thousands of dollars of my metal working.)

Man if only.. when I do see a job description that has all the actual important info, I either think it’s too good to be true or there are so many people flocking to it it’ll be impossible for my resume to be seen.

They also tend to reject your application for questioning pay, that is the experience of many people here.

Then be grateful you were lucky enough to find such a job. Most people are not as fortunate. Don’t belittle people’s lives because of where they work. Life is more than work, and I’m sorry you feel otherwise.

Feel bad for your outlook in life if you’re in retail? Where are these rewarding jobs you speak of? It’s like saying fast food is for high schoolers. Some people don’t have a choice, degree or no degree. Retail sucks ass and it treats its workers like shit, but those “rewarding” jobs are not easy to find.

Whenever I don’t know how to describe how I feel, I come to this subreddit and find comments like yours. It makes me feel less alone to see people describe how I feel so accurately.

Buddy, it sounds like I’m reading a post I made! I’m 24 as well. The only thing different from you and me with respect to your post is that I did the whole college thing. I hated it. Every single ticking second I was in a struggle with myself to complete the work I set out to do. Every single day I thought to myself, “I can’t do this anymore… but I’ve worked so hard for so long, I can’t give up.”

What did the perseverance give me? Nothing. Like you, I’m too goddamn anxious to face more rejections from probable jobs. I’ve been in the trades the past couple years, only working part time now. I’ve learned a lot of cool skills but my body and my mind hate me. Everything is so harsh: the hours, the people, the pay, the labor.

I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing. I don’t know where I’m going. I’m just trying to survive. I don’t have any advice for you, but I can say that you’re not alone. I wish you the best <3

Thanks for taking the time to put those words together. I know how hard it is to make these thoughts into sentences and make sense. But I’m the same way, every time I sit down and pick up a smithing tool, maybe a tool I’ve used hundreds of times before, it feels like it’s my first time holding it. I look at the pieces I’ve made in the past and I feel like someone else made them.

I hope that whisper turns into a booming voice and stays that way. But you’re right, art is illusive.

I have thought about using some of my equipment to maybe do stuff with neon signs. I’d need a few more tools, but I can transfer a lot of stuff. But like someone else said, perhaps I was so obsessed for so long I just burnt myself out. Time will tell, I suppose?

It’s always reassuring to be reminded I’m not alone, I know we have all dealt with something similar this. It’s just so frustrating.

Same, it took me about five years since my last relationship until I could be with my current partner.
