Yes Mental Health is difficult at the best of times. The politics are even too complicated and frustrating to go into. All of my work colleagues have been assaulted including me. Our pay isn't comparable to other professions, despite our level of training and the many compulsory courses we still have to do online/attend by law. Many units in hospitals are not run correctly and on the weekend, we are left to our own devices with no or very little support from management.
I don't blame you for quitting TBH.
i lost confidence. confidence in asserting myself with colleagues especially. too much tension. i started to dislike myself and others.

I do CVs too. I havent done any for a while but there is an art to them.

I worked for a CV company that had a great success rate and we prayed for all clients to find the right jobs for all the CVs we did for them. I did for people living in NZ but dont see why it couldnt work for anyone internationally. If you do want emigrate to nz then consider it.

I can make another thread on tips of how to make a great CV that will get noticed if you like. I knkw its hard applying for jobs these days. You need lots of prayer and support.

Funny thing is I am reading a book about people who'd gone to jail and how they became christians in prison. They also talk about how their life changed after and what they did when they got out, plus how it affected their families

Many of my client had been made redundant and needed a cv to apply for other jobs. The key is what field are you looking to work in.

For those need you stated in your OP it seems the best fit for you would be to work in some kinds of sales /advertising because you are all about upgrading to the latest stuff.

Its called Passing through shadows by KEn Gartner

Kiwi author, who has a minsitry in prison fellowship. But you could look for other books by others who work in that ministry because its worldwide.

I love it. “Without going to jail” 🤣🤣🤣

Hmm...

I noticed you said you’ve had experience in medical. Would you be at all interested in helping people maybe in a caregiving capacity? I bet you could be one of those folks that is a visiting caregiver or even just like a shift person.

Internet’s wise I would check indeed or even craigslist. There are lots who do small gigs for online writing, making social media posts, of anything local.
