Dealing with the isolation of unemployment (update)

Being out of work for 11 months has worn me down more than I expected. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I do not want to pretend I am fine.

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 11 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
