Mental health while out of work - any advice?

I am trying to look after my mental health while I search. I am in Detroit, in case local advice matters. I exercise when I can and try to stay connected. Did you talk to someone?

I told two friends how I really felt. It was uncomfortable, but it made things lighter.

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.
