How do people cope?
I've been looking since last October. Lots of applications, few interviews, not one offer.
I'm doing some online courses to improve my admin skills hoping that I can get an admin job somewhere (this isn't the area that I've worked all my life, but I can't even get an interview for that at the moment) but think it's a bit pointless as I'll be up against people with more admin experience yet half my age.
I'm taking antidepressants and the GP prescribed me sleeping tablets which I haven't taken yet but might.
I honestly don't think I'd be depressed if I had a job or at least something to do other than look for jobs, do courses that I actually find quite boring but hope may be useful one day, and get rejected from jobs.
I've been trying to find voluntary work, but there's nothing out there at the moment, I guess due to remote working.
Not helping that the weather feels like autumn at the moment and I feel that I've been stuck in this cycle of rejection for nearly a year now.
