When I was 12 I suffered a brain injury that causes me to be tired all of time, along with some hormonal shifts. I didn’t realize it for a long time as it happened in the height of puberty. When I was 17 I started going to doctors to figure out the fatigue without much luck (“well, the sleep study came back fine so it must just be depression!”). I went to college for CS, but I knew I couldn’t manage a 40+ hour work week. I did some part time web dev for local companies and hated it. I then shifted to being a photographer, with the idea that the seasonality of the work would let me work on my own projects in the winter. That kind of worked out, but it turns out that the photography takes up a lot more of my time than I thought. I released an app for the Wii U/3DS that did decently well. I made some extensions for Photoshop that absolutely flopped, though I did get a job offer due to it that I had to turn down due to timing. At some point during all that I/my doctors figured out what was wrong with me - somewhat, at least. Treating my terribly low testosterone helped significantly and I take stimulants to make up the rest. Now I’m settled with my wife and baby where we grew up, which is rural. I’ve been thinking about quitting the photography to go back in to development but I’m 33 with basically no relevant work experience. Quite frankly, I don’t know how good I’d be at the job either. I have no basis for comparison for my programming skills and I haven’t exactly kept up. I’m guessing I could get a local job but I don’t know if the pay would be better than what I make now. Theoretically with a few years under my belt I could maybe get a remote position that I’d possibly enjoy and would pay better. I feel stuck. I love doing (high school) senior photography, so I’d hate to give that up. It’s also just a small portion of my business and I’ve had a hard time expanding it even though my work is definitely the best in the area. Don’t discount how nice actually using your brain during your job is. Retouching/editing is largely brainless once you’re at my level and the only thing that keeps me sane are podcasts/audiobooks.
