โI was where you are this time last year. It was the job centre appointment and I couldn't see past it. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart.โ
โA note for the next person. Nearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was the severance runs out in March. I'm volunteering here now. From someone who gets it.โ
โTo anyone just starting this: it's going to feel personal, and it is, but it's not always about you. The right thing will come. I've been ghosted after final rounds and it stings, but you pick yourself up. Talk to someone. Take a walk. Keep applying. It's a numbers game, and you're not useless. You have skills. I'm still figuring it out, but I know I'll get there.โ
โI'm not going to pretend it's easy. Losing a job sucks. The ghosting, the silence, the way people look at you. But you're not the only one. I found a training course, met some people. It's small but it's something. Don't stay in the shed too long. And answer at least one message a day. Even if it's just to say you're okay.โ
