Admitting Fear: Wavering Hope In Job Search

[Recovery4Me]

Hey
:arghh;,

I know that I cannot walk in both faith as well as fear at the same time. So I am not very pleased, perhaps some shame rolling in :oops:concerning my PTSD kicking in big time… as my unemployment ends without a solid job prospect in sight.
I know this & I know that...but I am just scared and need to pull up my bootstraps. Everything will work out...yes, yes...I have survived before as I am older than most dust balls.:rolleyes:

I am trying to allow fear to hang out for a bit then I am going to box it up (all pretty like) and put it a corner. So as to not feel completely alone during this:cautious: panic party...
I thought I would admit to my fear...here...in front of everyone. And perhaps in a few (nondescript time slot)...I can add that my courage has returned.:wideeyed:

Until then...if someone has time...I will take a few hugs, please. lol Thankful for this forum.:notworthy:

I hope you will find something. It's hard. I've been unemployed for awhile trying to improve my health. I watch Food Network and try to visualize myself being a great cook. What I mean to say is I try to think that this is something possible. Someone out there needs an employee. Maybe that person will be you. Try to tell yourself you are the great employee someone wants.

Thank you for your kind uplifting response. I hope your health does recover in ways that you had not previously dreamed about!

A good part of our down time is that it does create the luxury of making health an priority and present additional considerations for a path. Time to cook as you mentioned is certainly a passionate adventure. Bon App`etit on your choices which may include a culinary school?

I have allowed my fear to be recognized, it has dissipated and now I can allow faith plus courage to come up to the plate for equal time. Thank you again, as it meant alot!:hug:
