Okay, I am a chronic job jumper. After about three months I break down and cannot work anymore. So here is my question.
For those who job jump, when you find the meds that work for you, how does it effect your job longevity? I am about to interview for an amazing job. It is my second interview with them and the odds look to be in my favor. However, I want to keep this job as its what I've been working towards for the past two years. It pays well, excellent benefits, and can really get me financially set up. But I'm scared to death that after three months.. BAM I'll quit.
Any encouragment, thoughts, realitites?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I dont know if meds help I have a job now been at it for about 7 months. I have only been properly medicated for about 2-3... my feeling to run away has definantely gone down but I dunno what Ill do when something comes a long that makes me want to hide.
Actually this job I have a boss who seems very understanding. If I cant hack it for some reason he lets me have time off. ANd I know the other option to not having a job is having my daughter 7 days a week and I cant hack that I need me time... soooo maybe that keeps me going at the moment...
I guess my point is I get where your at (I think) and I dont know the answer lol but I think meds may help (I think they are helping me) and that maybe finding a job you find morally/emotionally rewarding might help. My clients keep me coming back even in turmoil
