Any pointers for trying to work two jobs with Manic Depression (bipolar type 2)?

The job market in my area is terrible so I'm needing to take up a second job and I just feel worried that I'm going to lose control again.

The stress over finances was already leading to me having some pretty serious anxiety issues again and sleeping troubles.

Overall though in the 2 years since I've been diagnosed, I've had 4 jobs and the longest I've kept one is 8 months, I lost a promising career due to not knowing about my condition. I feel like I'm mostly in control again. I know the signs of my ups and downs, I know that they're usually just going to pass, and I'm usually pretty good with my self control during those times.

I just remember the last time I was working a stressful job and 3rd shift that after 3 months I was having emotional breakdowns and severe anxiety issues.

I just don't want to use my condition as an excuse and I want to provide the best life possible for my wife and I. I just want to be the breadwinner again and feel like a man :-/

pace yourself op , if you feel stressed out just take deep breaths and remember what you have to lose if you don't keep it under control , any stress you feel just keep it to yourself and take to waifu at home she'll help you need to get a way to burn just about all the rest off , i recommend getting a punching bag so when you get home talk with wife and go to the bag it should relieve all stress hopefully.

Thanks for the pointer. The good news is by the looks of it the job should be very systematic and structured which should be good.

It seems like it might be pretty good for me though. I just had the interview and got hired but it seems like the 12 hour days are spaced with days off in between and no more than working 2 days at a time unless I take overtime.

Seems like this might be what I was looking for and after 90 days I shouldn't need a second job.
