Feeling like giving up

Posted by OneGrumpyLumpy - March 3rd, 2022


It feels like I've been on the receiving end of some kind of sick joke these last 5 years.


I've spent years applying for jobs that won't even give me an interview.

My university course got shutdown just over a year into studying due to disorganised/negligent staff.

Last year, I finally got my first job at 22 but didn't last 3 months before fucking it up.

Trying to squeeze proof of separation from them has been a nightmare and I can't get unemployment assitance until they cooperate. Centrelink seemingly moving the goalposts and not accepting the alternatives that they themselves offered.


It feels like the world just wants me to jump through hoops, then at the very end is a note telling me to go fuck myself.

I'm not sure if I'm an idiot or a victim but one thing is certain: I'm exhausted.

I don't know how or when my situation is ever going to improve. I'm ready to just stop trying.

Never stop trying, mate. It sucks that you have to go through all of that crap, but don't stop. You will get through this. You will eventually make a break through and have the good times and blessings that you definitely deserve. Moments and even almost all the time things are telling you to go fuck yourself, but no. You can tell them that they can go fuck themselves since you will get through this shit. When it get's too much to bear, take a break, but don't straight up give up. Persevere for the future that you want and you will definitely get, man. You've already been through so much, you can't give up now. Also, you definitely don't have to take on all the hardships and stress alone. If you ever need someone to talk with to just let stuff out of your head, go for it. Here for you. It's not much, but here for you if you need a listener. You're 10/10, man.

As someone who has experienced searching for a job for 2 years, that shit sucks. As someone who is disabled, there's just so many obstacles just so you can live properly. It's depressing, thankfully I finally got a job. Perhaps you could start a small business. I have had suicidal thoughts over the lack of job.

I hope you can get through it

Sorry to hear that, man.
Sometimes whoever’s running this universe decides to give us a series of shit trials before we actually get anything accomplished. There are obstacles we can’t control, so we either have to dodge them or break through them in the most painful way possible. Take time to clear your head and then come up with a plan to get you through this hurdle. Careful planning solves a lot!

I really sorry that happend to you. Please take a break. Don't give up. I really love your art. I want to say kinda words, but I'm not good at talking something motivating. I don't want miss your arts.

Hey man don't give up, as someone who is not sure what his dream/path is yet im chilling, waiting for inspiration to come to my brain.
Im 20 yo, ever since i gained power of THE CONSCIOUSNESS i've been playing games, watching anime, having a good time with my life, im not in your situation but it gets better.

Nothing comes easy, nothing is promised, but you have to continue to keep searching even if the path seem foggy. We can’t have talent people like you give up on hope at the hands of reality. Keep trying.

Don't give up, challenge again. I know what it's like trying to look for a job and things like that (believe me it sucks), but this is just going to be a very short period in your life. There are going new opportunities for you, even if you don't know it yet. I mean heck, I bet someone will take notice of your comic and art and they'd want you for their company. There is no telling what the future may hold so keep trying. I know you got this!

Don’t do it.

I feel this man, I've been going through a lot lately and it sucks, but you just gotta remember what you want and go for it, and say fuck you to everything else. I don't even know exactly what I want, I doubt many people do, but the more you focus on what you really want out of your life the less the bad stuff hurts. It will always hurt if it's not this it's that but in the end we are what we make and I think you should try and focus on what you want to make always with the end goal in your heart. I hope this helps and I hope you are able to get into a better situation soon and remember you have a lot of people out here willing to give you financial support if you want it. Much love.
