    Rebuilding Routine After Job Loss

    Miglior citazione da Rebuilding Routine After Job Loss

    “

    Domanda di input

    I am 26, I had an incredibly fulfilling, challenging, and sometimes very stressful career then got suddenly laid off. I have trouble with weight gain- when I am stimulated and have direction o tend to lose weight and I am prescribed bupropion and adderall. I am applying to jobs a little bit, and I do best when I am busy but not working like 20 hours a day. Where should I go in life? I always find it hard to keep a routine and make myself clean my apartment and exercise.
