I'm not presently working but I trained, and worked as, a software developer. I struggle a lot with work and my working life has been very chaotic due to shit mental health. It seems like a really stupid idea, as being a chef is meant to be really stressful. However, the idea of it being fast-paced, immediate, physical, intense, sensory seems really really appealing to me.

I'm sorry if this isn't a lot of information to go on. I'm trying to reduce details, partly for privacy's sake, partly because if I don't wind myself-in this could be a novel long.

Yes, and ADHD has nothing to do with my answer. Don't work in food service unless you're a proper lunatic and have an incredibly high tolerance for being constantly shit on by people who wouldn't slow down if they ran you over.
