Thanks. As I spent a whole year with a therapist, the latest one, and for a long time hoped to feel better but it didnīt work out, Iīm at the same state as when I started therapy with her.
If I could just jump into searching for jobs, I would but I feel too ill to do that, at the moment Iīm on sick leave. I know therapy can work, I have that experience from my very first T even if the end to that therapy wasnīt good.
Iīm in a very difficult position as I canīt study, I have no more study funding and because of the rules here Iīm not allowed to study while on welfare. Iīm dependent on welfare as I donīt have more study funding (you get a maximum of 6 years). I already have several degrees but I donīt get access to the job market as Iīve been unemployed for several years.
By that I need to get into some kind of work rehabilitation program and you then need to be in contact with some kind of health care, to get a part-time sick-listning.
All this makes me feel very hopeless about things, itīs like if you donīt follow the stream you donīt get any more chances.

Many people get to really big life (including career) changes at middle age or even older. Go back to school, learn something completely new, get degrees... Have you thought of anything like that? Just make one goal and focus on one area of your life that you want to see improved for a while instead of hoping for something big and general?
