So I've been about 6-7 months unemployed and it's been awful.
About to lose my truck, considering trying to for disability as I have not been able to find a job since, and all I feel is gut wrenching disgust for everything when I search for and think about most jobs. Also cant go to therapy anymore which is like, thanks healthcare.
Oh boy how I know the feeling. I recently was in the same predicament. I lost my job on July 8, 2019 and applied to jobs left and right then recently found a job and my first day of work was on November 25, 2019. Believe when I say I know it’s hard to remain hopeful. I encourage you to apply for either unemployment, disability and financial assistance if needed. Financial assistance helped me tremendously. It didn’t make me feel like I was sinking. I will keep you in my thoughts and hope you find something
Thank you, I think what I need is support for the idea of disability and such. I'm always too afraid because living in the south as a male has a horrible stigma attached.
I get ya! I definitely would suggest you looking into and starting the process for disability. You might be pleasantly surprised by the outcome. It would be better than nothing.
I have been where you are at. I was laid off for close to a year. Fortunately I had savings, a severance package, and unemployed. I was very depressed and that is when I joined this site and started going to support groups.
I was called back to work and it led me to a position with another company where I am happier and make more money. You never know what can happen. Hang in there.
Oh yeah I totally get the stigma thing (although I'm not a man). People in general still do not understand mental health disorders unless they have one themselves. I'm hopeful you can sign up for Medicaid since you are not working right now. At least you could see a therapist. Getting SSDI takes quite awhile. Maybe there's some kind of employment you can do from home with a flexible schedule. I found a tutoring job where I could tutor from home and set my own schedule. It pays $35 an hour. I can't do it because I had my government student loans discharged and can't work for another 3 years. Anyway, that's my two cents worth friend.
