Hello chat

I upped my anxiety med dosage a bit ago and the anxiety has been so bad

Currently I am spiralling bc I've been unemployed for 3 years now and I haven't been looking for anything for the last few months bc it's made my mental health so bad i physically can't do it

I'm imagining it's going to be another few years until I'm stable enough to get back in there, and at that point I feel like I'm totally doomed due to having such a big gap and it'll be a never ending cycle

Idk if anyone feels like giving a pep talk I'd appreciate it lol

Also sry if this is the wrong comm the mental health ones mod only now so idk where to post

Just reminding you that it's not your fault, it's the system's. Unemployment is a <300 year-old concept, everyone worked before that, and it was fine because, like, are we really lacking things to do in this world? Unemployment is an unnecessary evil, and it's NOT YOUR FAULT that you're unemployed right now.
