Dealing with the isolation of unemployment (Salt Lake City)

I am trying to look after my mental health while I search. I am in Salt Lake City, in case local advice matters. I exercise when I can and try to stay connected. How do you ask friends for support?

If things feel unbearable, please call or text 988 in the United States at any hour.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
