A little background about myself, I’m 18 and was diagnosed with BPD around two and a half years ago (along w a few other things), which is uncommon due to being young and all. I take about five/six medications daily to regulate my emotions and such. 
During my senior year of HS, i worked at the corporate office for Shell doing administrative work, as an intern. My internship expired this year on August 9th, meaning i had to soon find another job. 

I was very lucky and even blessed to find a wonderful job to work for Aflac Insurance Company as a business consultant/insurance agent. I’ve never been down that kind of path so i didn’t necessarily know what to expect.. I had doubt in myself due to that, and thinking i simply wasn’t capable of doing such a job. However, after the interview, I was so excited! The job seemed exactly like something i wanted to do - helping people out and just meeting new people and connecting w them. I was scared at the same time though, it was a group interview and the other people along side me seemed way more qualified.. one of them even already worked in the industry and had his insurance license, I thought i wouldn’t get the job, but! the next day they contacted me for a second interview and at the end, they congratulated me and said I got the position! I was so elated. I told my entire family and my friends. 

This is where it got rocky... my family had no faith in me, they didn’t think i was suited for the job and they said my disorder would get in the way and i’d just end up losing the job anyways. I was crushed by these comments. Saying i wouldn’t be able to function well in this job just due to me disorder? it made me feel so sucky about myself and threw me off into some sadness. It made me grow reluctant to even continue on w the job anymore. 

I haven’t started the job yet and i’ve been extremely sad lately about the comments and thinking if i really am suited for this job.. i was so determined after the interview but their words just destroyed it and now i’m skeptical. 

Any kind words or encouraging statements would really be appreciated, i just want to get the comments of my family out of my head..

TL;DR - Family has no faith in me w my new job due to my disorder &amp; discouraged me greatly. Just seeking some support from others in this situation!
