Well the news for me goes from bad to worse I just received a phone call saying I have been not been offered the job i intervied for..
Its very hard Liam but remember you are in good company in this department...the very best. Everyone is receiving PFOs these days. There are 100s of good people going for good jobs. Only one will get it. That doesn't mean the other 99 are no good...not at all...only that there is only one job.
Very depressed at this stage I think its the end of the road for me and its time end it all nothing left to live for at this stage.
Hey Liam, sorry you are feeling so bad. Not hard to understand why really.
But remember there is only UP from here.
Living reasonably well on social welfare is possible...but you need to have your wits about you and be resilient to do it.
If you have no choice but to augment your rent allowance...just do it.
Don't feel guilty....either bend the rules or you'll break and that's not on.
There are alot of sanctamonious people about, who don't understand how hard it is for vunerable people to get what they need. You sound like an honest, intelligent and strong person. You WILL succeed!
I'm thinking you want to live alone for mental health reasons. But maybe you would be better off sharing? If you are currently very depressed maybe you should talk to your family or doctor...you can get out of this...but probably need lots of support.
Ending it all now is like cutting off your foot cos you broke your toe.
The pain is unbearable right now, but it will get better. You know that yourself.
Have you considered doing a course? My sister is in college at the moment and really enjoying it, even if she is the elder lemon.
It offers a good alternative to being unemployed, as it stimulates the mind and keeps you occupied and meeting people (especially if you plan on living alone)
Sending you a massive cyber hug and reminding you that life does get better. Please talk to your family and/or doctor tomorrow.
