Unhappy, I hope you can give yourself a break!! I hate to see anyone so hard on themselves...The economy in the US is horrid, and elsewhere I'm sure. It is not you!!

After 2 years, I thought I was un-hirable but I finally landed decent work. I have mental health issues too, and I know how hard it is to hide ANY "flaws" in the hiring process. It sounds stupid but it is true-- persistence pays off!! Be gentle with yourself and try your best. The hiring process is a cold one but it is no reflection of the real you.

Be a good advocate for yourself. Best wishes!!
