"For support and finding cures" (Mickey5567)

MDJunction to me

"My name is Jayna and I wanted to take this opportunity to say how much MDJunction has meant to me. I always felt so alone before I joined in April of 2012. I felt like there wasn't anyone that really cared about me and what I was going through. I felt like there was no one that would truly listen to me in what I was feeling. Nobody was there for me. That is before I found MDJ!

I have found and met such good people on these forums. I never ever knew there were such compassionate people before MDJ. It's also nice to know that I can come here anytime and get support for what I am feeling. I feel like I have met some wonderful life long friends. It is also an outlet for me to try and help other people that are hurting. It gives me a good feeling inside and gives me self confidence in helping other people.

I hope MDJ will be as good for you as it has been for me! Many Blessings and Much love." (jayna01)

pms and bipolar.....you wouldn't like me when i'm angry....

May 06 2010

ok just started my cycle. it would explain my anger the past couple of days, lol. no wonder i turned green and grew to six feet tall. otherwise i made it through work today, sleepy as hell. hope i didnt screw up too much ;) and tomorrow, i get to start work at 6am...despite the fact i put 8am on my availability. yet another proof that my job doesn't care what hours i can work. ugh. guess i'll just have to go to bed early tonight.

no rejection email yet on my last interview but i fully expect one within the month. ok so my positive outlook is nonexistent. i gave my standard positive answers for the interview, highlighted my strong points. they asked why i've been at walmart for two years. i explained i wanted to fully learn the customer service experience as it's a lot different from interactions on the phone. thought it was a good explanation. i probably could have added that i don't like to job hop. it just didn't occur to me at the time. eh well. i'll add that next time for any future interviews with different companies. maybe I could have said that I wanted to learn as much as I could about the company. they asked why I worked at one company for three months and I explained I left was for medical reasons. worked like a charm, they did not ask me to explain further.

still doing some research on aspergers. son is having trouble in job corps and thinking of quitting still. trying to find solutions to help him remove the distractions that keep him from studying. suggested to him to use the library. a noisy dorm room can drive anyone nuts. i feel overwhelmed sometimes trying to learn more about my condition and his. i feel ill prepared to deal with it all and wish i'd win the lottery so i can take care of all this. set up a trust for him. right now i can barely take care of myself and my family.

anyway been bored lately so i've been watching youtube videos on how to dance. sounds like one of my projects that i'll never finish, lol. i never learned how to dance. when i was younger, all the GOOD clubs never had the room to dance properly. sounds like it might be fun. been working on the thriller dance. say what you will about MJ, but he was a damn good entertainer and his moves were awesome. maybe by the time halloween rolls around i'll have it down pat. roflmao!

Good Luck on your interview, and I hope you do MJ proud. You mentioned Job corp. I have been very interested in that for some of my relatives. It sounds like a wonderful program. Do you feel like it gives kids who are not college material a good start, a trade so that they can become independent in this economy? Are the living conditions comfortable? I have a 13 yr old that I sincerely hope will go to college, but her gpa is only 1.7 due to laziness more than anything i think. I was thinking this was a great option if things don't work out. Another question, do you think its a safe and positive place for girls?

thanks. I do think it's a good program. The living conditions there are good from what my son says. There's lots of things to do when students are not on the job. However, the food there is incredibly bland, it's not very good. My son says they have mentors there to talk to. As far as I know, it's a safe and positive place. There's a lot of opportunity to engage in leadership activities. They also prepare you for college and I believe they pay for part of college if you can finish the program.

Thats great to hear, thank you for responding. I noticed different places have different trades. The one closest to me is mainly construction. I wish they had a vet tech one close by. Still trying to think ahead. I have time to think about the future yet. Thanks again
