I don’t know. I’ve been having anxiety and depression episodes since I don’t know when. When i left high school i started to study. During my studies I broke down and my parents told me i do not need to study, i can just get a job and be done with it. But even then I was shit scared about the idea of real job.

Now that I have my degrees I still feel useless because the employers will want to know what I was doing while taking so long to get my studies done. It’s so unfair. It took […]

While finishing my first degree I work at the university as a computer lab assistant. The work was easy enough and the pay was good. I sold top quality dog food on the side line as well. While accumulating customers to sell to, my feelings of anxiety was so bad that I developed Shingles. Every exam I wrote was hell. I studied from 7 in the morning to 6 at […]
