Getting Back To Work And Hoping I Last

New Here
Just got yet another job as a waitress. I've had 4 jobs in the last 2 years. Seem to keep 'em bout 3 to 8 months before I crash and burn. Can't handle the stress or I take things so personal I end up calling in and quiting.

This time I'm seeing a psychiatrist and am on a 1/2 dozen meds and am hoping things go differently. I live with my childhood abuser (mother) and she is the biggest source of anxiety. I need to move out and this is the biggest motivator for getting and KEEPING this new job. I hope and pray I can handle it and don't burn out after 6 months.
 
Congratulations Muncher72! I really hope you can stick with it. Just try and use that 'moving out' angle as motivation to keep going when you're really struggling. I wish you the best with it.

Moving out would be a real motivator for me too.... I hope that you can handle this, and make it work for you. You really NEED to get out and away from your abuser......good luck!!!!
