It’s one am, I have my coffee.
I have learned that Ima practice situational assessments. This is good news, bc it w allow me to pass them and get a job.
I have to find a website that allows me to do this. The one I found, I felt w asking me something unreasonable, in the terms and conditions.
Idk whether I got one hundo percent. It said so, tho could have meant the amount I had completed.
It’s almost like in war. They make sure that none of their tanks are taken, bc they can be back engineered. It’s the same w tests. People are not allowed to see the answers, and learn them.
I’m not doing this today, bc it’s the sabbath.
There is no Pétanque after Thur, for two weeks. This w be hard for me, unless I find something else to do.
I thought about going to agencies and getting in there, for the Christmas period.
Yesterday w a game changer. I learned that, I am starting to cope w the dehumanising, invalidating thoughts in my mind, when people are speaking. It w allow me to listen better, and feel closer to my friends. I w also prevent me from having anxiety attacks, bc it is around emotional instability that my mind does it.
It feels like a huge step forward. I k that I w have to rly work on it tho.
So, it’s taken like not quite a year, to get to this point, so I’m looking at how long until I have advanced further so that, I have these mental interruptions less often.
It should also help w general focus, thoughts entering my head when I am listening, thoughts that seem so important that I figure out and pay attention to, that are just mental rubbish.
Like, I w wonder something, and then panic, if I didn’t figure out the thing that I had thought of; so unhealthy.
With the test that I completed, I just looked over the situation over and over and over, and the questions, and absolutely agonised about getting it right. I hope I did well.
It felt of the energy I had when I w a kid. I w smash like tests and stuff, and application processes. It used to be that I c just get in the door, just based on my neat handwriting.
In the old days, we used to have to provide written applications, w a letter; and there wasn’t even such a thing as a CV.
The letter w very similar to the tests, in an abstract way. It w something that c be learned and copied. When mastered it c be used for every application, probably to great effect. This w the thing I feel, felt, that would sway employers greatly.
I feel so excited to be learning this stuff. It so reminds me of when I w a kid, and learning the application process, filled w confidence of landing a great job. A little step on the ladder.
Ik that J’s commandments are the only thing that I need, to have the energy of such enthusiasm for entering the world of work, and hope and faith; and rly looking forward to it.
I feel that only Ik, how they just totally overhaul my self, so that I am able to function so much better. What they have already done for me, tells me that they w do so much more.
I remembered when I w twelve, probably the best time of my life. I have been remembering so much of when I w a kid, like memories that were totally blocked, until even super recently.
I w able to remember what it felt like to be young, even tho I c not feel it is present reality. C be bc the medication is acting on the part of my brain that feels those feelings in the moment. That’s why memories felt so good, they were better than reality. I am on track for coming off it, w w be just the best ever.
Ngl, the application process has been uber upsetting. Finding this way of learning the kinds of answers to the questions w be a game changer. I felt devalued af, every time I w rejected. It felt like these tests were designed for the employer, to just garner narcissistic supply off of the applicants. I wonder if the educated feel they have more value than those that are not, and it’s a cultural thing.
I kinda feel that people worship education, and that’s why people kinda get obsessed w better career and no life outside of work. I feel it’s so sad. The way people are like this, just fills me w horror. They are suffering so bad and dek it.
Like the one thing that is supposed to make life better is doing well in a job, and I felt it led to being enslaved w crazy hours and no life whatsoever, like actual hell. I suppose if I never followed J’s commandments there w always be the risk of falling into that. They make life so much better. I feel they literally bestow on me, self respect.
I suppose that this being such a deprived town, it may be the culture here that is heavily down w employers taking advantage of staff, Idk, and it coloured my opinion of the experience of work.
