Hi, my name is Tom and Im in a pretty bad place at the moment. Ive been struggling a lot with motivation in the past few months. Im sutck in a job which I hate with no hope of progession. I have a 3 year old university degree and I feel I have no hope in getting a job in that field, with barely even rejection emails from employers. The very recent end of a relationship has given me days where i just cannot face anyone, where I cannot eat or drink anything and have even less motivation than usual for things I used to love.

I dont know id this is the kind of thing to put on a welcome thread but I feel its skmething i need to type anywhere, thank you.

Hi there. First, welcome to 7 cups :)

About your situation: might be scary, but sometimes a big change is needed. Maybe change jobs? Or do something our of your routine?

Ive been trying for a very long time to find another job. I feel that is my main problem, i dedicated a lot of my life into getting a degree and yet I have been unable to ever get anything close to it.

@RedUKC

Hum well finding jobs is very challenging. Even with a uni degree. Our generation is screwed lol.

But for real, what about making your curriculum richer then? Maybe some volunteering, some small courses, meeting the right people... all these factors can lead you to get a job in the area that you want.

I have trued asking around about volunteering but it would take time out of my current job which I would not be able to afford.
