Dealing with the isolation of unemployment (update)

Being out of work for 10 months has worn me down more than I expected. It has been weighing on me all week. I exercise when I can and try to stay connected. Did you talk to someone?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 10 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Community mental-health services often have sliding-scale fees. I found mine through 211.
