Im gonna give it one more month if I dont find a job in this time Im gonna hang myself, Ive worked hard for years and life doesnt give a shit about me I try my best and nothing good comes of it, I feel dead better I am dead then feeling this way cause no matter what I do at the moment there is not light at the end of the tunnel, I want to fight so bad but its like im control by lethargy and cant beat it. Im jealous of nearly everyone alive.

Please do not do this.

What if your happiness is one month and one day away?????

There is no way of knowing. I understand that money can become a HUGE issue, but don't let the lack of money cause you to KILL yourself.
There are jobs out there. Maybe not great jobs, but jobs still the same.
Please don't hurt yourself...........

So what you are telling me is that you are giving up? Bullshit, you have just told me you worked hard for years, and now you are going to be a quitter? That dont make sense to me.

I allways told myslef, "Okay, if I dont have a job, and if Im not going to have anyplace to stay, Im going to live off the land."

So you dont have a job, why not do something completly different? Why give up? Maybe this is life telling you that you are on the wrong path.

Take what you are doing now and do the oppisite. Dont hang yourself. Thats fucking retarded!!!!

Let go of the wheel, and just live. See where life takes you. Stop being jealous too, that doesnt do anybody any good. JUST DONT BE A QUITTER!

Do you have any bills? If you dont have a job you dont need to pay them. Do you pay rent? You cant pay rent without a job. So be a traveler. What do you have to loose? There are so many other options than hanging yourself.

It seems you already know how to do HARD. We used to chat a bit now and then. Perhaps we could again. I have been in this stuck place you seem to describe. Maybe together, we could noodle something out. Whaddya say?

Richie.....Ya know it's very scary to not have a job.Iost my job in Denver and all alone except for a son in Ga--He too lost his job and the one he had cut him down to 10hrs a week.So he came to Ga and used all his $ to do so-all I had left was my income tax $ and figured I could stay in Denver and use it up or use it to come to Ga too and at least be with me son,so that's what I did.I used all the $ I had to get here and pay to rent on a craigs list room and now between my son and we have maybe $30 between the two of us and bills coming up.Yeah man it's scary!!!!!I too am frantically looking for work,my son found a job at Home depot but It's going to be a huge struggle to get out of the debt we have and just survive.Had to leave most of my belongings in storage in denver and no income to pay for that as of yet.These are hard times for alot of people and I've never been in a position like this before-the rest of our family is all passed away.Do you have any family or friends to lean on?How long have you've been out of work???Tyler's advice is a bit extreme i think but not as extreme as killing yourself.Thats not the answer.SUICIDE IS A PERMANANT SOLUTION TO A TEMPORARY PROBLEM.If nothing else remember that-ya never know what is around the next corner.Write back and tell me your situation-what kind of work are you looking for?I know it's a bitch looking for work nowadays,answering those stupid on line assessments etc-I hating it but doing it-I'm not giving up and I've just about lost everything I ever loved-DONT GIVE UP DONT EVER GIVE UP
