I've been unemployed for over a year and went through June and July without UI benefits because of the dickering in the Senate. Know how I got through it without killing myself? By constantly reminding myself that I have an internet connection and the ability to read and write, and that that makes me better off than most people in this world.
Eddie38 - I feel you, man, I really do. My girlfriend of almost two years and I broke up recently, and there are days when the act of getting out of bed is so anxiety-inducing that it causes me physical pain. It sucks, man. But like you said - you just have to keep trudging along, even if it's slowly. You'll get where you're going eventually, and it'll be worth the trip.
