Unemployment has cost me my sleep

...See more Hi guys Its been a while since I actually came on here because I dont know where else to dump the way I have been feeling. I graduated with a BS in a life sciences subject and have been in the labs despite the overwhelming academic stress so that I wouldnt have to deal with ‘no experience’ situations when it came to applying for jobs. Multiple internships at really good places and have always been involved with my community and I still cant land my first job. My dream career was impossible to get to because I am not financially capable. So this was the next best thing and I just feel like i wasted my money, time, self worth and energy. I feel like I have failed. I am stressed out day and night, my diet is awful and I have never been more physically unhealthy. I also havent slept at night in a long time. I want to make a career change but I am also not sure about it. I dont know what to do and I feel like I am depressed.
