Will I be on a good path in the future?

I'll be 45 next month, and I've been unemployed for a few months now. Spending time lazily every day like this doesn't add anything, so if I don't work my whole life until old age and live a self-depraved lifestyle every day, I'm sure I'll be regarded as a loser. I really want to work if I can work in general, but it's impossible for me to control my emotions. Even at the company I got a job at, if I don't like something, there's a bad habit of getting angry at the other person right away, getting angry, and eventually attacking others. Until now, I have worked for a general company many times as a disabled person, but it didn't last so easily, and I quit myself because I was disgusted by relationship problems and work. I felt angry at a counselor at another business site that I had visited even at the workshop I had gone to for 1 year before, and I became emotional and yelled at them, and at the end I revealed my anger by flickering the scissors I had brought in front of the staff and saying they killed that counselor, so as a result, I was forced to quit the workshop in March. The consultation support staff told me that I can't work right away, probably because I'm mentally weak, and it seems that from now on I will use psychosomatic medicine daycare while I'm going to the hospital. The trial use is still only possible for the first time, and it is impossible to schedule the trial use due to staff circumstances, and there will be a second trial use at the beginning of next month. Once I finished using the trial for the 3rd time, I had an interview with the staff and I just waited for a good path such as general employment by participating in daycare every weekday from now on. Daycare is just a place to stay during the day on weekdays because you can't get paid like at a workshop. Until now, I have had a lot of black history, and my life seems to be at a rock bottom, but now negative thoughts such as wanting to die or that I'm a person not worth graduating from middle school have been suppressed. The reason is that I exercise by walking and swimming for 1 hour at the gym every day. Starting this year, the number of people rushing to the hospital for emergency outpatient clinics has decreased dramatically, and physical pain and malaise have also been relieved. I thought this was the result of exercising every day. I'm currently talking to the person in charge of people with disabilities at Hello Work that I want to get a job as soon as possible. By the way, I have something to think about, but I plan to use it regularly for psychosomatic medicine daycare from next month onwards, but if I go to daycare every day, will I definitely be able to open up a good path such as general employment? There seems to be a high tendency for general employment and severe employment as I age, but I wish I could decide on a job in my 40s, but please tell me how I can get to a good path.

I wonder which path is a good path for Tachin-san.

It's been a while, Tachin-san.

Tachin-san wants to get a job in the future, right?

Yes. I don't even know what's ahead, but I think it's a good idea to start with your feet.

You go to the gym for an hour every day, don't you? I think it's great to be able to move your body. I want to take an apprenticeship too.

By moving his body every day at the gym, Tachin-san surely continues his way beyond that by accumulating daycare as if physical pain and discomfort were relieved.

I honestly don't know if that is general employment. But why don't you start by continuing and then think about it?

I want to say a word to society

 Thank you for your hard work, Tachin-san, for working until now while having a disability. I'm sorry. Please excuse the frequent use of the word disability for the convenience of answers.
I would like to say a word to today's Japanese society. Why are they only made to do manual labor such as workers while having a disability? In modern society, AI is rapidly accelerating. However, it is not built so that people with disabilities can work anywhere. I can't build relationships well, but I think it's okay to start in the form of work experience where students are doing their own field of excellence or the type of work they want.
I'll stop complaining around here. I'm not in a position to support your employment. If you really have anxiety about your job, why not focus on what you love?
Let's zazen at a Zen temple to calm your mind. Let's devise ways to prevent anger from appearing for 1 minute a day. If you keep doing that for the rest of your life, it's real.
 

Letting your heart suffer is your better path

Jobs are not functioning well in any industry due to COVID-19. Earning a stable income from a company is also important, but the problem is that no matter where you go, you will feel unmoved even though the wind of impermanence and ruthlessness awaits in this day and age. To gain that power.
If your mind is much more stable, you will be able to determine, make choices, and make firm decisions that you should do this even in such circumstances.
Maintaining stable results at a company is also you.
You also act so that you can handle what you meet every day calmly and without disturbing your own mind.
Yes, you are also the one who realizes that this is enough for me... (°°°) and takes heart.
You are probably thinking that this is a problem that has occurred now at 45, but I think that “lightheadedness of mind” will probably continue to appear in the future. Even under the same circumstances, calm people deepen their knowledge and insight and manage to cope well even in the midst of such hardships. I'm not saying that your approach is wrong. You should continue to have a strong attitude of seeking a place to develop your own skills.
In parallel with that, they seek religion in life, something that will serve as a reliable foundation. It's about having a sense of purpose.
Every human being has an equal heart, but if you compare this heart to a sapling, plant, or soil, you cannot become a person as wise as a Buddha, even if you think of your own soil.
Grow your own seedlings and plants so that they grow properly and straight. Make yourself grow. In order for flowers to bloom, they must be properly watered in a place exposed to the sun.
The feeling of seeking that day is Bodhi Heart, and the mind that wants to absorb water learns Buddhism and absorbs nutrients for one's own mind.
The important thing is to grasp the key points and key points of the heart that “if I do this, my heart won't be bothered” and “if I do it this way, my heart will be calm and unbreakable.” Since ancient times, all monks have been able to properly control their own minds by facing themselves. This is what Buddhist practice is for. It doesn't mean that only boys should do it. How can you leave the suffering of your own life, old age, illness, and death to others as if you were treating your own cavities yourself?
That determination and ambition. People naturally seek the real thing if their intention is to do it no matter what. I have a feeling that I will make this heart of mine the best in my history.
