Hey everyone,
I [28F] need some advice on handling anxiety when job hunting.

Almost a week ago I finished school and I'm once again without work. I've been job hunting about 40-50% of my adult life and it has taken a huge toll on my mental health to the point where I'm barely able to apply for jobs anymore. I have gotten a few warnings over the years due to not applying to enough jobs. ( I live in Sweden btw )

I have tried taking breaks.
I have tried waiting for the anxiety to pass.
I have asked so many for advice but it's like they all give the same default answer. If their advice where enough, I would be a pro at job hunting.

I did get an autism diagnosis a few years back and I do feel better about myself, more confident and understanding of how I work so I think this time around will be different, but it's like the old anxiety still hangs around and I don't know how to get rid of it.

Please if you have any advice, I'd love to hear it.

Yes they are, yesterday did I see him in the act of peeing he faced the left wall but the pee was on the right wall, i don't know how he does it (he is covered so i could only see his head and a bit of his back)๐Ÿ˜‚

Oh i wasn't clear she told me that it can not be in the hallway because if i am at home then i will not be able to reach it in time or because the fire is in the way. She wanted me to put in in the living room or the kitchen (side).

Wood furniture can be hard to match if not of the same kind of wood so i feel you. And I think that is why ppl want them painted. It becomes so much easier to match ๐Ÿ˜‚

I actually used the wrapping on my speakers. The color was very red, they looked fine in the images, but irl does it look more like this. It looked extremely off so i used a dark wood dekorplast :D It wasn't easy because the shape isn't square and the surface isn't flat but further away does it look believable and they blend in so well so i don't think anyone even notice they are there haha

I have now downloaded Obsidian and tested it out, it seems very nice! I need to use it more before i can say how i feel about it. But so far so good. Feels like a more lightweight (and nicer looking) version of one note :D It would be nice if you can integrate vim with it, that is why i use vscode when i take notes on the computer haha

Your cat pees weirdly, hahah

Wow, that's a big difference on the speakers. what. Good job doing it!

What do u think of obsidian?

Sorry for answering so slow, wanna chat somewhere else where we can get a notification on our phone?

Thanks :D

I haven't used it much to say, but so far is it nice. It is a lot better than notpad++ and vscode. Both wasn't really meant to be used for note taking but that is what I used haha

No worries :D Sure thing, discord?
