Feeling so low, no stable income, uncertain future :(

Hi all, sorry I just needed to get stuff off my chest and get some advice really. Basically for the last year or so I've been feeling really low and my anxiety has increased. I am doing a PhD and receive a yearly stipend to live on which is enough to cover my rent, bills etc. However this is coming to an end later this year and I am just feeling so uncertain about what the future is going to look like. I am struggling to find a job for a number of reasons, including the pandemic, my mental health issues and the fact I don't drive (I have extreme anxiety over learning). I am worried that I won't be able to pay my bills and that my whole life will come crashing down. I am 28 and everyone around me seems to have their lives together, have nice homes, families etc. I don't know what to do, I feel so stressed at the moment. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

No advice, but you are not alone, not by a long shot! there are many people in a similar situations. I do know that this won't last forever. Good times will come. It just seems like forever at the moment.
