Blog Subject:  Cracked Is Being Courageous

I have booked an appt next week with a careers advisor. I am scared in a way as it is a new chapter in my life and I have not worked for so long - but I am also excited. If I could just get a small job to start off with then it would be so good for me in many ways I think. Obviously financially but also psychologically by giving me some purpose and worth work wise. I think I am ready tho it is scary. I reckon a few hours a week to start with would be good. The thing is I have no idea what I want to do - I know I want to use my brain but in what way I am not sure. My psych also pointed out, which is true, that my concentration is not great but I will talk to the adviser about all that and also say I need to be gentle to start with and also be allowed time for my appts as well. But my psych is being supportive which is really good. I actually had a really good session with her yesterday. So wish me luck please and I will let you know how it goes.

I hope that you are all well

Hugs

Thank you so much. I have been doing all these aptitude tests just now that have come up with a career in social services or education being things that would suit me. It is weird I was either really good at a skill or really really bad lol - no inbetweens.

Thanks so much hon
