interview after interview no one will hire me. my skills are through the roof. I've been out of work over a year. I was almost finished with bachelor's degree but due to money and anxiety I couldn't take a full load of classes. Rent is backed up and due, me and my relationship is suffering because my boyfriend is not ambitious or working either. Everytime I take one step forward, I go one step back. The way I look is probably offputting. the fact that I've been going to school for ten years straight while I actually was working doesn't help me. My old job stressed me to the limit until i was laid off. all of my "friends" abandoned me. I keep borrowing money I will not be able to pay back. I just feel worthless and like I'll never reach the success in my life that I want. Health issues keep me from really losing weight and exercising. But how can I drop a ton of weight in time to go on my next interview? I feel like I'm being discriminated against and yet I feel I am my own worst enemy. I really want to die. If I had the means I would. I just don't want to try something that doesnt work.
Hi, there,
I totally understand how you feel. As consolation, know Im in the same situation. I have been applying for jobs since June and dont even get to the stage of being shorlisted for an interview. I got a degree, I speak two languages, lots of experience and good computing skills and NOTHING. Just rejection after rejection. Because I dont have a job/income I can not rent anything so Im basically homeless. My boyfriend lives in another country and because the separation seems to be endless, they relationship is suffering. Im desperate. I was fired of my previous job for taking a year off sick on depresion (due mainly to the job).
I know very well and from being in life long enough, when you are depressed or down, everybody run off of you. Dont expect any sympathy from your friends.
As you I will never get success in life. Everything I try in life, anything I like or would like to get into, there is a big sign on the door stating "Darling, OU NO".
I become obssesed with my figure too, obsessing about being fat despite all doctors labelled me "anorexic", i see myself fat.
I tried many times suicide but everytime some stupid walk pass and says "don't do it, things will get better". I despise so much positive thinking and all the CBT therapy crap going on nowdays.
Life sucks and mine will never get better.
But I just want to let you know, you are not alone in this boat. I know it wont solve your problem. But many are on you feet.
I hope you had some luck recently
