What are good jobs for someone with low energy?

From major depression that doesn’t go away and fatigue caused by medication.

Hmm that's tough, sis. Mental health issues can really drain your energy, so you'll wanna find something understanding of that. Here are some ideas that might work:

- Office job where you can sit at a desk most of the day. Like data entry, admin assistant, receptionist - that way you're not on your feet running around.

- Online work you can do from home, like customer service chat, virtual assisting, social media managing. Lets you lay in bed if needed.

- Something part-time so the workload doesn't overwhelm you. Like retail cashier for just a few shifts a week.

- Library work shelving books or helping at the front desk. Libraries are usually pretty chill.

- Medical billing/coding - boring butt you can zone out doing it.

See if your meds doc can suggest things too. And be upfront in interviews about needs for flexible schedule or occasional days off - good companies will get it. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. You got this sis, just gotta find the right fit for your situation. Lemme know if you need any other ideas!

The first goal must be first to get off such medication the thought that " happy pills " are some kind of solution to a problem is quite ludicrous , these things are wayyyyyyy over subscribed in the USA , and must never be considered some form of " normal course of action " , you need to get healthy , that means diet , and much much exercise , this increases natural endorphins and will change perspective on life.

There is no job for someone who just says " I'm depressed " because emotionally you could not deal with any job or role , so start at the beginning , and get yourself into a place where you can put some recovery mechanisms in place to improve yourself , its natural to feel ups and downs in life , thats how life works.

To work, you need to be able to focus, so as long as you are on your medication, it would be hard to achieve.

Talk to your doctor about your plans to return to work. They can suggest something or change the medication.

So I would say you need to stabilise yourself first. Then, you can think about aligning the medications and returning to work.

Maybe an IT job, working from home.
