Can’t face going on

[Polly]

I've been unemployed for three years and I can't face job hunting any more

I have to record to video interviews and I've been paralyzed in fear in bed all day. I can't face it. It's si hopeless.

That's shit mate. All I can think to say is I hope you feel better the next time you wake up. Not much worse than wanting/needing work and not getting it.

Yep thats what happened to me, and here I am still unemployed for 15 years...

btw I thought all the businesses were shut, and it was near impossible to get a job because of the lockdown.

Yes just makes it totally impossible.

how did you survive 15 years?

Yes just makes it totally impossible.

how did you survive 15 years?

cutting down on everything, welfare, inheritance, i was also 'self-employed', but it was really the bare minimum. Its not sustainable, especially when you get older and more prone to illness.

Video interviews sound like my personal definition of hell and I've been unemployed for years. The only thing worse than interviewing in person is doing it virtually.

I'm so sorry you're going through that.

To end with a message of hope...
