I last worked a few years back probably as I was still looking for a job when I still lived in Spain in my 20s. I will work as a barista but I’m afraid I can’t work quickly or efficiently enough

I’m interested to learn why you feel you wouldn’t be able “work quickly or efficiently enough.”
The world is filled with all sorts of jobs, with a wide variety of skills, knowledge, willingness, patience or perseverance. Examples of how this can apply: Those that are willing to work with computers, servers, networks, etc, almost always have to have an abnormal level of perseverance with electric machines that don’t always give you a clear diagnostic. It’s not just about one’s knowledge.
Those that work in framing up houses need to have a willingness unlike most jobs, to work in all sorts of weather conditions and work schedules. It’s not just about their skills and levels of each.
Those that work well in clothing design need to grow to have a vast knowledge of how different materials work with or against one another, and on or around skin. (Among other things to know.) It’s not just about how well this color/pattern works or doesn’t work with another.
I hope you find this as encouragement and not a belittling of you. You’re in your early 20’s. And as things go, you are still technically in your ‘New to this plant’ stage. The lack of experiences and knowledge is actually an exciting thing to have. It means (at least to me,) that there are so many personal foundation building moments and experiences to be had.
Also, don’t let one job experience and/or work experience dictate what you can or can not do. You will only find sorrow, self-loathing and despair in doing so, later on. Keep exploring. Keep growing. Keep, moving, forward. No matter how small those movements are and how often you can or are willing to. There is greatness in everyone. Bring it forward. =)
(Never be deterred in asking a mental health professional for help or guidance. Good ones can be found. Also, depression is a Bitch and Anxiety is lying to you.)
low self esteem and probably comparing themselves to others who have been doing it for months/years who are efficient and skilled at it.
