Help me find an impossible job

Hi all,

I'm looking for work after three years of well, being unemployed but also having around 6 jobs that I left after a month due to various reasons.

I also tried training as a MH nurse but had to leave.

I have a few different issues. I have fibromyalgia, and I'm diagnosed with cyclothymia and CPTSD. However, my therapist thinks this has been misdiagnosed, and I have a referral for an assessment for autism and ADHD. Personally, I think it's more likely to be AuADHD, but only time will tell.

I turned 30 last month, and I really want to find a job I can do and stick to for myself, to be a role model for my children, and just because I want to really.

I have over nine years of experience in customer services, finance such as loans and debt collection, and some administration. I have some education. I have GCSES and a level 4 higher certificate in psychology at 120 credits.

I can't go back to education unless it's at college level or an apprenticeship.

I've applied for a few different jobs and have an interview for a business administrator apprenticeship with the NHS.

I'm just wondering if anyone has similar issues and what jobs they do to see if I can find something suitable.

I really don't want to go back to call centre work - I'm just stuck at the moment and trying to figure it out.

Thank you and happy new year.

Hey, similar situation with diagnosis of fibromyalgia, ME/CFS & FND. Been unable to work for more than a year now & also wanting to turn it around. Pretty sure I'm Audhd also. My daughter is awaiting diagnosis & I'm just like her 🤣

I'm working with a charity called enable who help disabled parents back into work. If you are in receipt of UC, they have disability advisors who can help.

My main goal is to retrain as a book keeper & be self-employed. I can work how many hours I want & can plan my own schedule.

What skills do you do well and what things do you struggle with? Do you want something face to face, in an office, WFH? If you don't get many responses on AIBU OP, you might want to repost another time on the neurodiverse chat section.
