You know what's great about being human?

We get to try again if we'll just pick ourselves up and do it. Yes, it's work, but put the work in. Don't blame society, get to work.

I never understood work, what are we supposed to do? How do you look for a good job? No idea.

@Ferise1 I'm not talking about just a job, but about life

@Ferise1 Do you have a job now? If so, doing what?

Ferise1 · 46-50, M

@BrandNewMan nope

BrandNewMan · M

@Ferise1 Ever had a job?

Ferise1 · 46-50, M

@BrandNewMan yes I had a few but I found it hard to keep them or to search for new ones

BrandNewMan · M

@Ferise1 Lol .. no one said its easy. What has been the issue with not being able to keep the jobs?

Ferise1 · 46-50, M

@BrandNewMan I wasn’t skilled enough
Plus, my mum would come to work and suggest to me that I should come home so that messed me up
Then she tried to get me committed…

BrandNewMan · M

@Ferise1 So . pretty sure we talked before about options like apprenticeships, trade schools truck driving school, etc. before. There are ways to obtain marketable skills .. some times in a year or so. You have to do something about that these days to get decent paying jobs.

@BrandNewMan okay thanks for your help. That would be great but for the last seven years I’ve been feeling like I’m falling into a black hole… and it’s terrifying and I need to lie down most of the day so I really can’t get into anything unfortunately

BrandNewMan · M

@Ferise1 You can't give in to that and have any real hope of change happening. At least get help for the depression /challenges you have so you can start on more at some point.

@BrandNewMan it’s not depression. It’s literally falling into hell or a black hole or something.

BrandNewMan · M

@Ferise1 It may not be depression .. but its definitely not literally hell or a black hole. There is a path out of your situation, but you have to face reality to follow it.

Good luck to you.

@BrandNewMan nope. It’s literal and there’s no way out.
