Rock Candy Reviews

Today, I learned something that I thought I had already learned. Not to settle for less. (At least not in the long run.)

I had no choice but to quit my job, as it was making both my mind and body sick. Everyday I was coming out of shifts crying myself to sleep. My eyes were twitching, and my head was hurting. When my eyes were cooperating, I was staring into space, so zoned out and depressed.

It got to the point where my thoughts were becoming dangerous. Dangerous enough for people around me to show their concern.

This all happened today.

Realizing how unhappy and unhealthy I’d become was actually frightening. I had convinced myself that my life and mindset had to suffer. The world we live in made me believe I needed to settle for whatever I could get. Even if it made me miserable.

But now, despite my worn down experience, I have decided to document my journey to finding a job that actually suits me. (And of course, getting my mental health back on track.)

No matter what happens, I hope that you will join me on this journey, as I share this pivotal time in my life.

Everyday, until I’m better.
