RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

1 year of Unemployment... I wanna die sometimes (lemmings.world)

35 M.

My depression and loneliness had fucked me over enough last year and since I quit my abusive job (underpaid, boss screaming at job, no benefits, hated everyone, shit conditions) things aren't getting better. The fact I can't get a job even at a fast food sucks (some of you Americans complain about having that job, you're LUCKY to have that)... Job apps don't work or always ask for experience, I can't even get an Amazon warehouse job. Nobody calls and no, you can't just knock random doors of business expecting to give you a job, even worse if you're an immigrant.

My mother has enough of me living with them and I can't blame her I'm old ass virgin dude that will never get married but seems that everything is against me and I'll never move out. The world decided to just fuck me over. Again, the fact I can't get a job is killing me. And no, I don't have money for studies and this country doesn't offer trade jobs education for people like me, I need the money NOW. Shit, I controlled this shitty town web page and hasn't been updated in a year. The job help is a joke.

Sometimes I googled painless ways to die.

You’re not alone. 33M I was part of tech layoffs from a reputable firm June ‘23 and still can’t find a job despite countless applications and interviews. Hopefully things get better after the election.

Life is still worth living though and one day you’ll look back at this period and be glad with your life.
