maybe I was wrong about considering other avenues of seeking income. for the longest time I mostly just focused on web dev, tech support, and just general tech oriented stuff because that's where my aptitudes lie, and never considered trying anything in the service industry for instance. however I managed to acquire a job working as a busser at a restaurant, and for the first time in my life, I felt like what I was doing at work actually mattered and that I was actually part of a team that cared about my existence and needed me there instead of just being another nameless face among droves of others.
granted I just got fired yesterday because i guess i just wasn't good enough at it and too slow. what a wonderful birthday present! but that transitions to my next point: just because something happens that society would generally deem as bad or undesirable, doesn't mean you have to get caught up in depression or anxiety over it. what happens, happens. sure it sucks i lost my job especially given my situation currently, but hey, I'm still alive and still have the chance to find something else. the problem is never unsolvable no matter how much your mind tries to tell you that it is. all that you need to do is simply just choose to act. not doing so is what contributes to being trapped in the depression and anxiety that have driven my life for longer than I can remember.
