Staying positive without pretending - any advice?

Being out of work for 5 months has worn me down more than I expected. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I do not want to pretend I am fine.

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

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