Hello everyone I have been going through a lot I started a new job over 2 months ago and I was so excited and ready for something different but I just got fired today and I just feel so hurt and mad I tried my hardest to do everything that i could and now I am feeling low and depressed I just am not feeling good enough I also struggled with a co worker she was mean and bullied me everyday i cried almost everyday but loved the job so much I thought it might be a long term job but it was not the right one and now I am sitting at home feeling sick and frustrated because I don’t know where to go from here this is my first time getting fired. I also struggle with not having a license or a car I grew up with so much anxiety that i could not pass my exam so I have to ask for help with rides everywhere and I feel bad even asking for help but it’s what I have to do right now and I also am struggling with depression and not feeling like anything I do is good enough it really sucks going through so many things all at once if anyone has any advice or would like to message me that would be great.

I'm really sorry about you losing your job. Especially in this time when the world is so messed up. Don't give up, when searching for a job it can be exhausting and stressful. My last job was a job i loved but u had a boss who insulted me in the office constantly and even called me stupid on occasion. She made me think I would never get hired by anyone else. I started 'operation apply' with a colleague of mine and our plan was to apply to at least 2 job posts every day. I applied to jobs i didn't even qualify for but i never gave up, i found a company with a boss the complete opposite from my last job. You will find something and I hope when you do find it that it brings you joy. Our jobs affect everything in our lives, I hope everything works out for you.

hello Diamond99, I have a problem with getting jobs and quitting them because I talk myself out of the job before I even start. I apply for so many jobs and get offers but hen all the dislikes start flooding my mind. For instants, I just was hired last week for a job I start next week and I'm already thinking about quitting, I can't explain why I do this I just do, I'm broke and I hate it, I think it's because I don't want to deal with people. I'm sorry you got fired from your job, may be the person bullying you felt threatened by your performance and exposed their poor work. This happens a lot to me at my jobs. I would not be surprised if they were bad mouthing you and that caused your termination. My drivers licensed was revoked since I was 18 and I had to find rides for years until I bucked up and took necessary steps to get it back. I'm much happier now because I have more opportunity. Maybe you can find someone to let you practice driving in their car to help remove some of the anxiety. As for jobs, you will find another one guaranteed. Remain diligent, thank you for sharing, I appreciate you.
