I start a new job on Monday (update)

After 8 months I accepted a job as a copywriter. I could not have done it without this community. What helped you in the first month?

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.

That is wonderful news. Keep applying for a little while if you have not signed, it is a good habit.
