I’ve been jobless for 4 months, it’s been really hard in terms of looking for a job, getting a job and paying my bills; I’m only 20 and I have so much weight on my shoulders - I have a lot of debts to pay back and bills to pay and not having a job makes everything harder. I’m the oldest in my family and I can’t rely on my parents because they simply won’t help, I’ve been paying my own bills since the age of 16 (using my lunch money to pay my £20 phone contract). I just hope I get a job soon

Hang in there. This is temporary as are most things in life. The stress does suck and if you want to chat I'm on right now.

I'm so sorry to hear this and that your parents aren't much help. I had to put myself through college and it was hard. Hang in there!

Hello Ceemulann .

It can sometimes be so difficult to get a job and it can seem like everyone is looking. I have known a couple people who have gone through job hunting recently. It is stressful, especially when you have no outside help from family.

I guess you have put the word out to family and friends that you are job hunting. Try to spread the word further and try temporary work too until you find what you are looking for. Hang in there. Vent here and good luck finding something soon.❤️

Can you not minimise some bills sounds like you have difficulty budgeting and knowing essentials it’s a young age to get in debt you need some kind of guidance for that

It’s hard to minimise the bills, the dept is from my uni accom fees which I need to pay monthly

University campus is always expensive and not up to standard i would find another apartment close to university but cheaper and see if you can share with anyone they are always extortion.do you currently share the dorm or alone if not I would find a partner to team up with to lessen the load
