Hi guys.
I am in my 40s and I think I am suffering burnout. Leading to low mood, struggling to find joy in anything, even physical signs like bad guts, palpitations ect. I work in a carehome setting and it is all I have ever done but I think now. I have had enough .I work 44 hours a week sometimes more and I am zapped of any energy. I am at the point now I am simply in it for the minimum wage pay to live day to day. The shifts can be long, the residents god love them are becoming increasingly difficult physically, on top of that we also do domestic and cooking. In my own opinion there is not enough staff to resident ratio. Here is my issue I am in my late 40s with no qualifications or experience in any other field. I would love a front of house job,a job where I can use my mind more as oppose to my what feels like worn out body, but who will take me? I have no experience of office programmes, not really fluent on computers. What i do have is a smiley, positive, helpful attitude (even if this dissappear after every shift) . I feel I cannot even do online courses or take a gap out to train in anything as I would loose money. Are the training courses from home any good? I have a laptop ect. I just need a change.
