is this depression or boredom?

Well, I am super bored. There's nothing to do. And because of this, I kinda feel sad. I wanna sigh repeatedly. Every now and then it feels like I'm on the verge of crying. I'm extremely lonely, nobody to hang with today. I'm just...meh. I want to do something but I'm not doing anything.

Maybe you need a job.........or a second one?

@anythingoes477 I'm waiting. My first job ever, a temp. job at a Halloween Store, is finally over. All that's left is for me to go in and clean the place up and then I'll be out of a job for good.
If you're 18 to 21 as it says you are-----find a GOOD, long term job. Temp jobs are OK...but they're temporary. Your need to have $$$ and pay bills isn't.

@anythingoes477 I finished high school May 2016. Ever since then, I have applied for several jobs, every week of my life till now. And no place has ever accepted me, except for the Halloween Store that accepted me literally hours after I sent in my application. I'm still looking for a job now. Hopefully these two months of experience (mid-Sept. to mid-Nov.) will help me get a job.
@ManicMicah The work is hard but the $$$ are big. Find a good union---doing something that will ALWAYS be in demand like--plumbing, A/C and heating or Electricians--and apply as an apprentice. They hire often and once you're hired you are pretty much guaranteed steady work until your apprenticeship is over (at least) starting at $18 an hour in most cities. Then depending on how good yo are--full time from then on too at upwards of $26-$28 an hour.

@anythingoes477 I want to do something I'd actually enjoy. So I think I'll stick with retail for now. I like dealing with people, customers, greeting others and etc. Plus I'm amazing at a cash register. That, or I'll go into a fast food restaurant (or even an actual restaurant). Something to start with, something that'll be easy and that needs workers.
@ManicMicah Both options VERY low wages. The ceiling you set for wages---is yours to do. Easy--minimum wage--harder=bigger $$$. Up to you.

@anythingoes477 I'd need to be trained. I want to get a job like...SOON. Not do something that I'd hate doing. I hate working with my hands, I'm not physically strong, doing little tasks around my house strains me, so no thank you.
@ManicMicah Good luck.
