Feeling useless

I quit teaching as i basically couldn't cope with the pressure and also felt that i was shit at it.
Retraining to be a radiographer but whilst im good at the theory, i keep making mistakes on placement. I was pulled up for making one set of mistakes one week so i worked hard to try and improve and then got pulled up for the same set of mistakes the second week even though i thought i'd improved.
I just feel a bit crap and in every job ive had i feel like i have underperformed. I try my best, work hard and dress smart, try to be professional....but still underperform.
It is affecting my mental health as i do suffer from depression.
On my last placement i felt that i wasn't deemed very good...and yet i got 99% for one of my exams. So i knok w the stuff but why can i not put it into practice?

It sounds like you are being highly critical of yourself.
You are still learning and you are allowed to make mistakes.

Try not to be so harsh on yourself.Flowers
