What did you eat for breakfast?

[Jason]

Most days, honestly, I'm not having breakfast. I need employment. My pizza hut job stopped because of a tragedy last December.

Why aren't you going for better jobs?

Pizza Hut is for kids.

I have some mental illness. I did teaching for many years but stopped and not been able to ease into another career. I do have a bachelor's degree.

What mental illnesses?

Can you not take medication (often affordable with a better job) to control it?

Supposedly I have 2nd degree autism. But this wasn't diagnosed until 2023.

Do you think you do? I mean do you agree with them?

I ask because, if you're misdiagnosed, you'll live a whole life a different way than you could have.

I was super anti-social at one time, and would even shake and barely be able to talk when I was around strangers. Now I can do public speaking to 1,000 people looking right at me. I'm the most social person in the room.

I would have hated to have to live a life and miss out on everything because I thought I was truly anti-social or something was wrong with me.

I think it was worse in the past.

Maybe you're getting better

Okay back on topic:

Cereal and coffee

I think a cheap option that is easy to make and healthy is boiled eggs. You can get 6 for around a dollar still and that fills you up good.
