I would appreciate some advice please. Long time mumsnetter since 2004.
Dd, now 22, did a degree in business admin with marketing, not found a job yet, 10 months on. Currently doing waitressing which she enjoys, but not what she wants to do for a career. Unfortunately, she gets very stressed, goes weeks without applying, only to get a telephone interview and then nothing. One week she got 3 rejection emails wgich we counted as a win because they at least bothered to reply to her.
I dont know what to suggest. She no longer wants to do anything matketing related which she was super enthused about 7 months ago. Refuses to explore anything suggested by her brother, as she saya she doeant want to use nepotism. Her words. Ive suggested she do a masters but that just stresses her and she ends up blaming me for not giving her usable ideas. Im a doctor, so very straightforward career path and a bit clueless about the real world, her words. Im at my wits end as she blames me for everything wrong in her life, refuses to recognise that i also have stressors going on in my life, and well, it all goes into a downward spiral. Yesterday she said she feels she cant speak eloquently, so i suggested political campaigning as a tool to help her inprove but because thats her brothers thing, she flat out said no. But not having a job is severely impacting her confidence
Does anyone have any thoughts on what i can do or how to help her?
