Is there an end in sight!

I am sick and tired and I am tired of being sick and tired. I take one step forward and there is always something that takes me 10 steps back. Honestly is it easier to just quit and accept my fate that things are not going to change, or keep going until I come out of this storm. Some days I really wonder if there is an end in sight. I wonder if I am ever going to say its over! Its my time now!

I have been unemployed since Janurary. Between Janurary and now, I havent even been given so much as a whisper. What is going on? Am I applying for all the wrong jobs? Are my expectations too high or too low? Are people not hiring? Is my name just too complicated for them to pronounce so they dont bother to look at my resume at all? I mean what is it? Is it racial? ARe there really no jobs out there. I dont get it! I apply for a job, I get the "We are sorry although you are qualified for this position we found someone who is more suitable for the job" However you go back days later and here is the job posted still hiring. So what is the deal? I can't take it no more!

You go to school, pay obscene amounts of money to get a college education, you take all the right classes get all the right grades and you come out of college with your bright shiny degree with bright hopes, thinking you are going to have all these jobs thrown in your face that it will even be hard to choose. 3 months go by nothing..You stay hopeful and just say to yourself it usually takes 6 months, 6 months roll by, you are getting antsy but you still remain hopeful, next you know its been almost a year and not even a phone call to say, we want to interview. What is going on? Is it really because of the bad economy or are companies just refusing to hire you! I know I am not alone and I know there is an end in sight, but when bill collectors dont care, and in order to survive you still need to buy food to stay alive so you can keep applying for work but at the end of the day you spending money you dont have, bills are going un paid, bill collectors hounding your ass like they depend on your money to pay their bills and depression seems to be your new best friend.

When will this end? How will it end? They say going back to school is the best option, but how do you go to school if you can't even get a loan because you dont have a job and your credit is probably jacked cus you can't pay your bills. I mean its a catch 22. Its easy to say life sucks but it doesnt, just everything in it that sucks! God help us! We need a break and we need a break fast!!
