  Q. I am a 25 year old college student that lives a seemingly normal life. However, ever since I began holding jobs at the age of 16, I can't seem to stay at any job or hold one down. I am not lazy, and am not afraid of work. I get a feeling of uneasiness spontaneously while at work, and I feel this overwhelming compulsion to just leave the job. I have done this at about 60, yes 60 jobs in the past 9 years. I am beginning to worry If I'll ever be able to function in our economic society due to my inability to stay somewhere. I am lost on what to do, I make good grades in school, am an active healthy person with a lot of friends. I am generally social but am prone to avoid things in general.

  A. It is unclear what is wrong. Could be a form of social phobia, generalized anxiety, or a host of other maladies. Get a good psychiatric evaluation to see what is going on.
