Everything hurts so much mentally and physically. I don't know what to do. I just want to give up.
I'm at school but I don't want to be, I'll never be able to hold a job for more than a few weeks. What is the point? No one genuinely likes me. I feel so alone in the world. I used to turn to Tumblr in times like this but it's like there is a "let's hate on your favorite character" party going on there and it's really, really upsetting to me.
I sense a huge meltdown/shutdown coming on...
You know what? I was at the exact same position as you 2 years ago. When I graduated from college and landed my dream job, I quit on the first day because social anxiety kicked in. Since then, in a course of TWO YEARS, I kept on looking for jobs. I was attending interviews every one or two days. I did received jobs offers but will either turn them down or land the job than quit within a week.
I'd just cuddle up in my bed, punch myself and cry every time I messed up, and that's like 4 to 5 days a week. This went on for two entire years. I cried everyday while sending out application letters, feeling like trash and worrying about using up my savings from school.
Things started to take a turn when I decided to work as a home based freelancer. This is far from being the easiest or best paid job in the world, and to be honest I sometimes feel like a loser, but this is a lot better than worrying about sustaining full time jobs. You may want to consider this if a full time job doesn't work for you.
There are always hope and solutions, please don't give up. Things really do get better as long as you are trying.
