Feeling like a lost cause...
Alright, here's the scoop...Im 21 next month...I cannot drive, my childhood has had permanent effects on my mental health, making me a bit hostile which led me to be terminated from my first and only job so far on mutual agreements with the boss (burger king). I have tried applying everywhere in necessary walking distance from my home and Im running out of options, I really want to work, I dont care to be the "welfare king" I am determined to work for what I get. I have had volunteer experience in multiple fields, I am autistic and I really would like some help, advice, job offers...anything helps at this point...
Cody, You are awesome! Get through the hard time, as we all have, you're gonna be just fine! Good luck!
Hi Cody, I had the most terrible, messed up childhood it seams anyone can have. Really bad. When I was 21, all of a sudden, I met the most beautiful girl I had ever seen, she had to have been sent from heaven. Yours is simply a temporary situation. But you must not fight with anyone. It only makes things worse. See how it has, and will continue to cause you problems? Keep your cool, no matter what! You will meet someone, too. Never, ever hurt her! God sent her! Keep your cool!
I am praying for you young man. I am truely sorry for your downfalls but pray , P.U.S.H Pray until something happens.. Let God lead you and you shall not fail.. Try free labor for the elderly I someone who can bless with a meal and you will blessed beyond this earth one day. First just take a deep breathe and be thankful because you are here for a purpose for a great cause.. God makes no mistakes, and fast food may not be the industry you need to be in.. Apply for a truckin position and tell them no experience... they train you to drive not only a regular car but A 18 wheeler.. and no new to even put your last job on resume.. Praying for you to prosper
You could apply for ssdi
Dear Cody, I can read your frustration clearly and it must hurt to feel stuck like this. My first advice is to find a way to calm yourself so you can see and act clearly. Being upset will not help solve your problems. It sounds like there you've got no public transportation which is really a shame since it would help you get places. You might want to contact Autism support organizations like ASPEN who may be able to refer you to housing and job support. Support organizations like these have a better understanding of your challenges and may have existing programs with just the help you need. At the same time your hostility is not helping either. You said it relates to childhood events. This must have been awful, but by allowing it to affect your mood today it is still hurting you. You have some control over whether you let past issues go. Understand that striking out at others does nothing real for you. It may feel good for a moment but actually hurts you. catch yourself when you're thinking this is a good idea and let things go. Try to be as compassionate to others as you want them to be to you. Best of luck.
