Yipee! Looking for a new line of work.

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone, I just wanted to share a recent breakthrough and also see

if anyone else is/has gone through the same.

I think that I've posted several times lately about some stresses and

dissatisfactions about my current employment as a teacher. I'm going

to be relocating to another country soon and will be forced to change

jobs and I have only 1 week to go in the school year!

I've decided to go back to the drawing board and really think about

what kind of work would make me happy, which is something that makes

me happy in and of itself. I have not only been researching on my

own, but will also be going to see a career counsellor next week.

I've never tried that before, but am really excited about it. I think

it's important to have a chance to reconsider my career of choice now

that I've worked so hard to get my sense of self back and figure out

what I do and do not like. Also, my new perspective on BPD has

allowed me to see that some things I gave up on not for my own

reasons, but for reasons that have nothing to do with me, what I want

or what I can do.

I think that it's going to be really different to work on finding a

carreer that I like now, after addressing so many of my KO issues.

Has anyone else had a similar experience?
