People are sometimes given the option when leaving jobs......"you can quit or we are going to fire you....your choice" That way they can go elsewhere and say they quit for whatever reason.......This sounds like your position with future employers......"I resigned because I was struggling in training and falling behind....I felt my previous experience of 1500 hours in a 182 wasn't very beneficial in airline training."
3. Most likely, nothing is wrong with you and you need to chalk this up as a learning experience and get back to work on the dream.
4. Companies like Flight Safety, Simcom, and Simuflite have "right seat" programs where they provide FREE training in exchange for your volunteer service as a supporting crew member for their single paying clients......the value of this training cannot be OVERSTATED for a low time pilot.
5. You will be able to land interviews in the future......100% guaranteed with some more training and better experience.......182 jumper time and crop dusting is about as worthless as it gets as it pertains to 121 CRM.
Relax and move on.

I did not know Simuflite offered these opportunities. Any of time logable?
Either way, this guy does need to get on with his dream. I'm getting ready to the same soon.
