I feel like a caged animal. Unemployed for two years. I am 60 but cannot afford to be not working. I spend my days alone - totally isolated. I have been turned down on hundreds of jobs – internet-based listings. I have tried contacting local agencies, temp employment agencies, specialized job sites, etc. It is clear that I will not be hired at a manager level --I used to have a very respectable job and have worked my entire life. But something bad happened to the business, and I lost my job. Now I am doomed to boredom and loneliness every day, while I financially dissolve into nothingness – I never saved my money and am in serious trouble. I have no hope or sense of self-respect. I am willing to take pretty much any job but don’t know how to get one – everyone tells me that I am over-qualified (and they probably think that I am too old as well). I am a failure and my depression (which I have had for decades) has reached an all-time high. Meds and counseling do nothing for me (and I am running out of money for both). Thanks for reading. Best to all of you.
