Yearning for a more positive life

Hi, I’ve been struggling with depression and anxiety on and off since I was in my early teens. Recently I’ve suffered my first few nervous breakdowns, been admitted to inpatient psychiatric care, residential mental treatment, PHP program, IOP program. I’ve had a history of quitting job after job. My current IOP program will soon come to an end and I’ll be on a search for a new job. Even though I’ve learned DBT coping skills, I’m still scared to go back to work and worry that my anxiety will get bad again. Anyone out there been in the same place as me?

Hi Butterrfly I have that same problem I job hop & it’s all to do with my anxiety & doesn’t help with certain types of people around me which triggers me. I’m tempted to tell people at work that I have anxiety but not sure if everyone will understand or it’ll be a sign of weakness. Do you know what triggers you?
