I am applying for jobs at Target. I cannot deal with the stress at the current job any time I make a mistake. They do not review my work, even if I provide it early and then are furious if they find errors when they are on a job site. I literally had to say today that I would not be able to guarantee never making a mistake.

My Dallas-area mental map is fuzzy, msbelle. Are you anywhere near Plano?

Because books.
I hope you find something else, msbelle. It's such a shame -- the current job seemed so good when you started.

yes it did and they are going through some stuff right now I am not sure what it is, but I really can't deal with feeling like I am a worthless sack of shit employee. Also I just need to have heath insurance. period.

and I am not beyond realizing that I am probably not a great employee right now, so maybe I need to work in an environment where less will be expected.

Well, a job with a little less direct supervision/interference and time to yourself would be good. Plus the health insurance, definitely.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
msbelle, I am so sorry you have to deal with this. I hope you find something perfect for your situation and headspace right now.
Have you also thought about Starbucks? I know they offer health insurance to part-time partners working at least 20 hours a week. My best friend from college and her husband work for them now and rave about the company benefits. (They started off as baristas in college, moved up to managers, then district managers, and finally work at HQ in Seattle.)
