Are you saying that in "professional" situations (job applications, or even asking for advice on HN), you need to hide your struggles and present an image of a flawless worker who handles all situations in stride, even though you can't live up to it because of mental/life struggles, depression, and the looming prospect of homelessness?
- atoav 6y agoI don't think this is an issue. What is an issue however is the lack of self reflection OP has about their weaknesses and the issues that arise from their mental condition. To change something OP has to face the affect their character/behaviour has on their environment, job chances ans interpersonal relationships within these jobs. The lack of even the slightest hint of thinking about that is what is critical, not mental health issues per se.
