I'd like to share how hopeless I feel right now, in order to get some sound advice or sympathy
I was made redundant in late 2008 from a fairly good sales job in a home automation company on good renumeration, although the reccession caused the company to collapse and left me on the dangle.
Since then, I have struggled with anxiety and derpession in fact most my life, but however I managed to kick the anti depressants out of my life.
I now realise why I took them, I'm a nice person and all but lack esteem, lost touch and have no friends except OAP nieghbours. anyway I'm getting back into "life" again slowly, doing normal thinsg like jogging and shopping, gardening.
But it is really difficult, everyday seems the same and neverending, I try and go out and about, with tight limits on JSA, I feel like I'll never get a job or work or have any money to even go to tesco and do household shopping again, I have had temporary jobs but you might aswell cal them modern day manual slave labour esp with pay rates and they make me feel like a dogs turd, last job was putting sleeves on 10 pkx of john west Tuna all day long.
I am glad to be living in my family home, other wise I would have hung myself or died of starvation, I did try it once with a slipknot but as soon as my hearing started stalling I cancelled.
What do I do??? I apply for jobs all day with no joy, I have no where to go and not a lot to do with not a lot of money and nobody to see notinh to look forward to, and spend my day in isolation mostly even outdoors.
My mates are mostly married have kids, livlihoods and seem happy.....correction my ex mates, who were not really mates it seems.
I am muslim also, so I grew up without venturing into courting or dating thinking I'd get an arranged marriage and that would be it only to find out that my folks wanna take me to all the way to Bangladesh to marry a 1st cousin, just the though makes me sick, not her but the cousin marrying bit.
Islamic advice is to be patient, but at this rate just being patient I am sure to die of lonliness or even go insane with all the issues in my life.
what do I do????? im 29 but look 18 under 16 sometimes when I want to buy smokes.
And to top that all my house is empty across the road from where I live, every moring I go there to turn the lights off and open the curtains and do vice versa in the evenings. this lonley routine, and restricted life with limited money and the other issues esp with no one to discuss them with is driving me crazy...I actually find myself having discussions in my mind with myself................................... and constantly staring out the windows
please some some adult advice, and please do not tell me to go and see a psycologist as I am not mad yet...... but I am suffering.
