Leader RedBaird Posted January 31, 2014 Leader Share Posted January 31, 2014 Just something to consider: Some of the things in your post sound like me, before I was treated for depression. I have my "magic pills" now and am much better off. have a very short attention span i was never really a people person i like to keep to my self most of the time i not a loner but around people i just think there all idiots and from time to time will say so i very straightforward and honest person if i don't like you i tend to ignore you As my sister put it, "...if only people would just shut up and do things right!" She has had to try various meds to get better. I got better on the first one tried. When I was at my worst, I could play games for hours but could not remember more than a couple of digits at a time of a number to copy or dial them. Just something to consider.

*Kiba* Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 ok,so you need advice about work that is suitable for you & a laptop? work yes laptop no if you read what i said i looked at laptops and almost all of them are way to high for me i used to work as a computer dismantler. I open up old and donated computers, and take out their motherboards for recycling purposes, such as sorting out low and high end motherboards.... see that something i would like to do but i know almost nothing when it comes to the inside of the computers Just something to consider: Some of the things in your post sound like me, before I was treated for depression. I have my "magic pills" now and am much better off. have a very short attention span i was never really a people person i like to keep to my self most of the time i not a loner but around people i just think there all idiots and from time to time will say so i very straightforward and honest person if i don't like you i tend to ignore you As my sister put it, "...if only people would just shut up and do things right!"

Just something to consider. will i have or had adhd i us to take like 15 to 20 different type of pills then my dad die and my mom just stop give them to me my short temper went away but now i have the short attention span and i guess you can call it selective memory and i really have no wish to start take pills again like 1 year later i gained almost 200 pounds from the age 14 to 10 i did not way no more then 115 to 100 pounds if that and i can't really say i have depression i don't really have anything to be depressed about i not unhappy with my life i mean there are times when i am but most of that is when i don't get my way or whatever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nani* Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 That's a feeling we all experience at some point in our lives. One can be more or less sociable, always depend on your mood and your willingness to deal with things. We should all be more positive despite the circumstances, being negative do not get anything. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanaraud Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 First about technical advice. I think a tab would be suitable for you. Some of them should fall in your price range and are just powerful enough to surf around. Also multimedia laptops and the ones not meant for gaming should fall in that range, found several in my country web shop. About back pain. Have you visited doctor and are you stretching making other excersises? From my experience simple calm stretching can help a lot. But as it goes for back muscles which supports your spine you should be careful and not force into moves you can´t do at the moment. What comes about work then unplug your desktop, discharge yourself from static electricity and take screwdriver and take that side panel off. Never knows, you might get even interested about the inner side of the PC;) I bet there countless different job types, just keep an eye on job offerings for a longer time would be my suggestion.

redy. Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) Hi Kiba, first off: it is not easy to open up like you did and to talk about your personal live an your issues. Thanks for your trust! I think you did the right thing: open up, seek advice and maybe some help. What you wrote regarding a job: Your good with your hands, you have a interest in computers, a team is not necessary for you to do your job... Sounds like you could be a very good graphic designer or photographer. http://www.gettyimages.com is the page where my company buys graphics and fotos from. If you can invest some time in learning how to use tools like 'gimp' you might be able to sell some graphics. What you wrote regarding your personal live: You are a strong person. You have your mind set and you are honest. We have something in common. I had issues in my live too. The smallest things got me pissed off. I didn't have the energy to change something. I gained weight and had back issues. I talked to a doctor and the situation i was dealing with for years was a medical issue. My hormones were messed up. The doctor i went to did some tests. i had to take a half pill for two months and i feel way better. I lost weight, my back problems are still there but way better, I'm in a better mood and i started to have energy to work out. I'm not a big fan of doctors and pills, but they can help you. It is not always bad. redy. Edited January 31, 2014 by redy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckun Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) I understand your feelings, I am exactly the same @Work - Web designer perhaps? You can work from home, you don't need to code anything, you can be purely a designer and your customers would have to code them for their site or employ a developer..

Antichrist Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Something to consider.... You're trying to find a job to work around problems or faults you have... Why not, as others have suggested seek help, advice, and/or treatment/training to correct the problems you have that can be fixed, and thus open up your employment possibilities? Not to be mean or negative, but if I were an employer, with a list of needs as specific as you've listed, you wouldn't be on my list of potential hires. You need to sell yourself to a company, not the company sell themselves to you. In the job market you'll be competing against a lot of other people applying for the same job, and if one of them is more qualified for the position, they'll get hired first.
