Im really worrying about my situation with getting into work right now because I really want to be in employment by a few months but I'm just scared I won't. I've been struggling for so so long with it. I am trying too and getting the right support for getting into work and extra support for it but I'm still struggling with the process of it all and scared I won't that end goal of the job. I think I'm trying my best and doing what my current work coach is saying, I just want things to improve and secure a suitable job.

    It sounds like you're going through a challenging time, and it's completely understandable to feel anxious about your job search, especially when you've been trying for so long. First, it's important to acknowledge that you're putting in a lot of effort and that in itself is a significant accomplishment. You're taking proactive steps by seeking the right support and following your work coach's guidance, which shows your commitment to achieving your goal. Well done <3

    It's really valid to feel scared, and I'm really sorry that the job search has been such a struggle so far. It can be such an exhausting process and really takes a toll on our mental health. It's also normal to feel uncertain and worried during a process like this, but remember that progress can take time, and setbacks don't mean you're failing. Every application, every interview, and every step you take brings you closer to finding the right job for you. It might not happen as quickly as you'd like, but your perseverance will pay off. It's also really good practice and can help you out a lot later in life.

    Keep focusing on the positive actions you're taking and try to be kind to yourself through this process. You're on the right path, and with the support you're getting and the dedication you're putting in, eventually, you will reach your goal. <3
