As others have said it is time for you to have a chat with a careers advisor and friends and family to help you decide what you should be doing next.
It is worrying that you are already feeling down and this is going to be overwhelming. You haven't really been settled in any job for some time so maybe you need a complete change.
The country is crying out for carers, for example. Maybe working in a supermarket would be just the ticket. Catering. just something different to what you've been doing recently.

I'm not sure that you understand what you are saying about becoming very ill. I've seen that happen, of course, to teachers who are stressed beyond breaking and working 16 hours a day - with inimical (supposedly neutral) reviewers hovering behind them.
You are not talking about that sort of stress.
You are talking about an ordinary, fairly easy, job as a dental receptionist (if I've got that right?). If so I've known two ladies who did that job and both enjoyed it and did not find it stressful.
Seriously, Abbeyleigh, I think that you have misunderstood the definition of 'work'. It means that you put yourself out. That you do something for someone else for recompense. Just 'being you' won't hack it. You have to learn to strain, stress a little and fulfil the expectations of your bosses (I am very aware that you must not stress beyond your capabilities).
You talk about warehouse work. OK, that's fine for now. What happens when you get older and physical work is too much for you? You need to think about this very seriously now you have reached 30.
I'm sorry to have to be so straight with you, Abby, but it is very important for your future. Re-think your life and be resolute, please. You cannot coast along, I'm sorry, but that is the truth.

Why don’t you try volunteering in a charity shop.
That way you will get experience of customer service, stock handling, retail skills etc. You would also get training.
It will also look good on your CV. At the moment your CV will show that you have had lots of jobs and for short periods of time.
You may also be able to get a part-time job and keep the volunteering, it will also look good for employers that you are not sitting idle while out of work.
A friend of mine worked in a charity shop for years, becoming a key-holder and deputising for the deputy manager, as well as training new volunteers. The manager was sad to see her go when she got a full time job.

What do you want to do?
Most people dislike their job or the people that they work with. You have to learn to schedule your social life around your work.
Starting a new job is stressful with much to learn. You have to stick it out and give yourself a chance to settle in.
I had to give up working full-time when I was 40 as my health was unstable. I started doing work in the charity shop and have been there for 18 years.
You really need to realise that the perfect job doesn't exist. It might be miles away or you might have to work weekends - find something that uses any skills that you have.
Stick with the job for six months before leaving, show your employer that you want to fit in and be reliable.
