FastByte with Julie A. Fast: Work and Bipolar

[@jean6061]

I am SO GLAD you put that project aside temporarily! Julie, I can't even bake or cook a more complex meal when I'm depressed, let alone write or do something artistic. And that's a BOOK you're talking about! You will definitely be able to pick it up when the time is right and actually have fun writing that proposal.

You're great! keeping it authentic - very good

I'm bipolar and *want* to work. I haven't worked in while due to my illness and a series of unfortunate circumstances beyond my control(having to move to another state which I hate, having to accept charity from family who would rather I wasn't there, seeking work and, not getting it once it's discovered how long I've gone without work and and what my condition is-someone actually told me that's why they'd never consider me for hire). I'm tired...so damn tired. I need some resources that'll really help me have a chance to be self-sufficient. If anyone knows anything, please please get back to me. I'm an artist, and have training in massge(although I'm out of practice and probably need to retrain).

Thank you. I also have bipolar disorder and I completely understand. I work in retail and get to work an hour early because I’m so anxious about work. I’ve hit the brick wall before. I can no longer work morning shifts anymore because of it. Thanks for sharing and I think I’d enjoy your books.
