I've posted on here before, and I got some pretty caring responses. I'm still struggling though. Is there anyone else out there who is struggling to find work in this economy? I apply and apply for jobs, and can't get a single one...is something wrong with me?

I feel so down every day, all day. You start to wonder if you destined for a life of misery when you have to struggle more than other people.

You might think a job is nothing to feel depressed about, but how do you live without one?

No it's not you, I can't get a job either and it's not for lack of trying. Soul destroying but things can't stay like this forever. Hang in there!

Keep trying, things will get better with the economy sooner or later, I am sending you plenty of hugs.

I only have a part-time job, and it isn't paying the bills. But I don't think of myself as worthless. I do think quite a few people in Washington, D.C. are worthless, though.

The national economy is a vast, impersonal behemoth. It tramples the just and the unjust alike.
