Are there well paying jobs for people with depression?
Chronic depression will be a lifelong battle for me. I lack work ethic and passion.
I am not suited to my current career in design (web, UX, graphic.) I don’t like the constant ongoing learning required, the exhaustion from creative brainstorming, and the subjectiveness of whether I did my job well or not.
I want to just DO and go home. I’d like a job where tasks, even if complex, are fairly straightforward and objective in their requirements. I am not passionate or motivated enough to engage in too much creative decision making.
I don’t want to be too picky. I think I’d be suited to jobs where I’m monitoring, organizing, filing, completing reports, handling transactions, or other straightforward tasks. I am cordial and can deal with the public, but I’m not very outgoing or charismatic.
My only requirements:
- Full-time
- Minimum $35k or $17 an hour (Opportunities to earn more preferred)
- No manual labor (Physical tasks, like ones in retail, are fine.)
- No driver jobs
- No going back to college (I have a communications degree. On-the-job training, certification paths, or training in under 6-8 months is fine.)
