This is my first time posting on Reddit. I have had anxiety problems for as long as I can remember and was diagnosed with general and social anxiety in my youth, and later PTSD. For me, holding down a job was one of the many things made difficult by my anxiety and the longest job I had held down as an adult was 4 months. I’d jump from temp job to temp job. In November of 2020 I was desperate to stop going through temp agencies for work. My wife suggested a private security position that she had seen listed and I agreed that it could be good for me. Well, long story short, it’s 6 months ago today that I started my Security job. I know it doesn’t seem like much of an accomplishment, but for me holding down a non temp job for half a year is huge progress for me. It has been anxiety inducing at times, but this is the first time with any job I’ve been able to push through my anxiety and not have any attendance issues and actually enjoy going to work. The stability this job has offered me through a steady schedule, and being so close to my home adds comfort, has been life changing. I was very pleased today to hit my 6 month mark and I wanted to share with this community. Thank you for letting me share my progress.
