Starting to struggle again

[EJ7215]

The past couple of weeks I have felt my anxiety, depression, and self-doubt rising again. I'm feeling lonely most of the time, and since I am not working much, I have too much time with myself and I feel like I am getting lost in my own head. The stress of trying to find a new job (and constantly interviewing and getting rejected) is finally catching up to me. Plus trying to start dating again has added more rejection on top of a heaping mound of rejection. I may have a high tolerance for rejection but it feels like I am hitting my limit.

I have been doing everything I can to stay busy (online courses, finding new music, cooking, writing, etc.) but I can't shake the empty and lonely feeling. I've been convincing myself that I won't get jobs that I interviewed for, even though I know I did the best I could and think they went well. I go on dating apps and I convince myself I won't hear back. Confidence and self-esteem are sinking on a daily basis and I can feel it falling.

I know things get better, and I will eventually find a job/relationship, but it's all starting to get to me again. I'm tired of going to bed feeling like s**t and wanting to cry.

EJ7215, the first thing you do is change your way of thinking. We cannot think negatively

and expect a positive outcome. An easy way to reverse your way of thinking is through

a sleep video. Check this one out on YouTube, it's good.

"You are Affirmations/Confidence and Self Esteem" while you sleep your subconscious

mind will absorb each and every word it's told. Using this program daily will change your

way of thinking. You can do this. Good Luck xx

Thank you! I will put the video on tonight and see if it helps.

I am sorry that you are having a hard time. I don't know if you read the bible, but its what I turn to no matter if I am having a hard day or not. "Praise be to you, Lord; teach me your decrees." Psalm 119:12. As I meditate on the bible, it gives me peace. It doesn't change my circumstance, but I am looking to someone higher than myself for comfort. Also try going for a walk, and see nature, as you change your perspective, then your attitude can change. I hope this helps!
