^You can always vent here. We're here to listen. Does your school offer free counseling for students? You might want to check into that.
^ Not at all. I'm currently going to a community college and they only have academic advisors and whatnot. No therapy or other counselors. I've looked into it more than once and it amazes me that they don't have any of those services. I have no idea why they wouldn't. :idontknow:

That last one looks more like, "This is you after said negativity has resulted in copious amounts of stress, sweat, and eventual acne breakouts."

Lately I've been considering just mustering up every bit of courage I have and calling the therapist I found and asking about their prices and if they could accept my insurance. I don't know what else I'm going to do if I can't afford it. Go back to locking up emotions I guess, because I don't feel like anyone in my family cares. :sad: I really could use this help. And that's why I wanted to be open with my mother about everything anyway, because not only would it be relieving, but I was hoping to talk about seeking a therapist and getting further help from there. This is something I need to do myself though, by the looks of it. Even if I can and do go through with this, I'll have to coordinate appointments with my school schedule and get rides from my friend. She does know a lot more how I feel around people now, and she has not judged me or treated me any differently. Coming clean about the whole depression issues is a lot harder and haven't told her yet. I'm just so afraid and I wish I'd stop. She hasn't treated me any differently this far, so why can't I just do it?
Once you're confident enough to talk about it, it becomes a whole lot easier and you can start feeling like you don't have to hide behind your issues.

No one will employ me.
All I want is a friggin job. Not too much to ask in life. Where I live, the employers have so many people applying for the job vacancies, they can pick the cream of the crop, which I am not.:sad:
Finding work is really hard. I'm sorry you're having so much trouble. I hope you find something.

Welp, guess I'll have to wait until Monday to call about a therapy appointment. For some reason I had quite a bit of anxiety talking on the phone today. I could barely make a call to one of my previous employers about W-2 forms. I kept thinking I was talking too loud and that everyone around me was listening in.

I hear you. I have a hard time believing I'll ever be the best candidate for any job. It's different in retail or restaurants. They tend to hire at least a few new people at once. But in many cases, there's only one opening. Even if I'm perfectly capable of doing or learning the job, there's always going to be someone more qualified, more experienced, more personable, or whatever. Even if a job requires no experience, someone who does have related experience always has a better chance. I just feel so mediocre.:sad:
