So, I've recently been doing some trauma work in therapy. I also recently quit my job, as the job triggered my trauma and just overall wasn't a good fit for me or my bipolar. 

I live with my mom, and the internet at my mom's house sucks. YouTube doesn't work half the time, and you can forget about large downloads. Reddit, Whatsapp, and audible are about all this internet can manage for me, and sometimes even those are hit and miss. 

Anyway, I was thinking about getting a work from home job so that I wouldn't have to deal with the public... just not at my home. Specifically, I was planning on paying a close friend of mine rent to use her spare bedroom and internet to work at her house. 

However, she also works from home. And she and her husband talked about it and decided that me working there may compromise her connection. So, she told me no. Now, I want to be very clear that I'm not mad at her at all. But this does suck. 

You see, I have a whole bachelor's degree that I earned back in 2016. I have years of experience working with troubled youth in foster care. But that experience doesn't translate to the types of jobs I want now, and folks around here laugh at a philosophy degree. So, I feel like I will have to reduce myself to either retail or gas stations if I want a job. I'll be cleaning bathrooms and wiping off pumps and selling cigarettes and working a cash register. This is not the kind of life I envisioned for myself, I am not happy or grateful about it. 

Am I being entitled? Do I need to just suck it up? Are there any other options that I'm missing here?
