Feeling really low. Just wanna be a normal person with a normal job that doesn't break down when she gets a job and ends up not going. This is really personal but I've got crippling anxiety and have been out of work for 2 years now, and it's not getting any better. I manage to go through the whole interview process but have panic attacks when it comes to actually going. I quit my old job because I worked really hard but got treated really badly by members of staff that aren't even there anymore and wasn't assertive enough to stand up for myself, the only way i could is by the getting really mad and that just wasn't me. They were always cruel to me and expected the impossible even though i was by far the hardest working person there, whilst there were slackers doing nothing and getting away with it. They broke me to the point i couldn't come to work without bursting into tears.
The rest of the people there cared about me and accommodated my every need and I have just thrown it back in their faces by leaving. because when it's bad i just flip out and act irrationally, At night I just remember the good things even though there were a lot of bad days. Yeah i'm lazy at home but not in work my work ethic has always been great and i push myself harder than anyone. Sometimes i think of applying again and going back there but I left on bad terms so they probably won't have me back anyway. I've searched for help everywhere but nothing works for me. they just want to drug me up with medication or send me self help PDF's via email. There is no 1 to 1 human counselling available for me. The longer I'm out of work the lower my confidence, self esteem and people skills become it's a mean cycle.
I'm not getting any money and have to rely on my boyfriend for everything i''m sick of being a burden to him even though he says i'm not. We run out of money really early in the month and I know it's my fault. The only income I have is art which I am trying so hard to get good at but I can't get my name out there because you have to pay for advertising in the first place.
I avoid people even if they are close friends because being around people zaps my energy. I just feel like i'm going nowhere and am going to be like this forever. If you want to help please consider donating at:

Maybe one day i will have the courage to go all the way with a new career and not let anyone down but it feels way off right now.
Thanks for listening to my vent.

"Burgundyglo" Rickenbacker |

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Thanks a lot for taking your time for reading my post. I appreciate it.
I turned 28 last month, living inthe suburbs of Zurich in Switzerland. I work as a shoemaker in the city, my hobbies include literature, art design, 3D modelling and music.
Well, music is a big part of my life, since almost eleven years I deal with vintage guitar parts and accessories internationally. Ever since I'm a collector and seller of vintage case candy like straps, cables, strings, manuals/tags and more.
My addiction to musical instruments, especially vintage 1950's-70's electric guitars/basses, started to grow after I played in a (high school)-band. Since then I was looking out for a vintage instrument. That resulted with buying an 1967 Rickenbacker 330/6 from an German musician, when I was turning 21. I got it for a in Europe rare and low price, fortunately he kept it in near mint conditions and never had any modifications done. It was the best playing instrument I was able to hold in my hands. Now I understood imediately why so many musicians in the 1960's have choosen Rickenbackers (The Beatles, The Byrds, It's All Meat, MC5, The Who, Jefferson Airplane ...).
But my luck soon was stopped by a heavy accident (I broke my right leg several times, almost lost it), whose recovery took almost two years (another half a year without screws and plates in my bones). Unfortunately, in order to continuing paying my bills and hospitality taxes, I had to appart from my Rickenbacker. It was kind of hurtful, but I kept making music with my acoustic guitar, a birthday present for my 10th birthday. I never had an electric guitar ever since, because with my low income as a shoemaker I can barely even put away some money for vacation. I don't go out for partiying on weekends anymore, but I somehow need a valve to release stress after work. Playing guitar always has been my best medicine for it.
I kind of miss the easy playability of Rickenbacker. The problem is, that since my 330 I haven't found another onet o try out: Rickenbackers don't seem to be very popular in Switzerland and are hard to find. Since a couple of years I'm watching out for the Model 360/6, one of Rickenbackers altime bestseller I guess. I never played one, but would like to change that somehow.
I've found some vintage examples that are on sale and available for fair prices. Their finish color is "Burgundyglo": first issued by Rickenbacker in late 1968 as a custom color they're no longer offering. That's sad, because this color always looked just right on their instruments, especially on 360-375 models. Rickenbackers in Burgundyglo are very rare and notoftenseen. Until know I could call myself very lucky since the examples below are on sale since almost a year and haven't been sold to anyone yet. I'm not sure for how long they will be available. But my thinking was, that I at least should try to ask for help before it's to late. If I wouldn't have triedit, I really would regret it for a long time. That's how much those instruments mean to me, and I'm blessed to know that out there are still a few of them.
01. 1973 Rickenbacker 360/6 "Burgundyglo" (Japan), ¥268,000 (c. $2436) + $180 shipping = $2616
>> https://www.digimart.net/cat01/shop4240/DS04554761/#
02. 1976 Rickenbacker 360/6 "Burgundyglo", $2499 + $160 shipping = $2659
>> https://www.gbase.com/gear/rickenbacker-...urgundyglo
03. 1974 Rickenbacker 360/6 "Burgundyglo" (Netherlands), 3490€ (c. $4127) + $130 shipping = $4257
>> https://www.classicrockguitars.eu/vintag...7211346754
There's only one available in Europe since a long time. Switzerland, as far as I know, only has one early 80's Burgundyglo 360 regristered. It isn't my goal to start any music career, but I want to get in touch with vintage electric guitars more often, also and finally to hold and play my lifetime dream instrument. If one of the shown instruments above one day should belong my own, I'd like to regrister it on http://www.rickresource.com.
So if you're interested in helping me with bringing a Burgundyglo 360 into my life, you may donate here: http://paypal.me/Leeroy422
In regards to that, I want to thank everybody forward for your donations and wish you all the best.
Thanks and blessings,
Kl33

Hello.
I can’t believe I’m doing this, but this is what it’s come to. I’m a single mother of a beautiful 2 year old. Around the time my daughter was born I was also diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I’ve been placed in the hospital a couple times because it’s very agressive. I have accumulated over $75,000 in medical bills! I have been trying my best and even got a second job to help pay for everything, but it just isn’t cutting it. Any little bit will help. Please help me so I can provide the best life possible for my daughter, she deserves so much more than I’m able to provide.
