It's been a few months since I was laid off from my job, and I can't shake this wave of depression that hits me every night. I initially thought I'd take the first month to relax, but it turned out to be anything but chill. By the second month, I promised myself I'd come back stronger, but now, in the third month, I find myself feeling completely non-functional during the late hours. I've been grappling with these dark thoughts since losing my job, and I realize I've tied my self-worth to my previous role. Without that, I feel almost worthless. I've been actively searching for a new job for the past few weeks, but I've had no luck with interviews so far. Is it normal to feel this level of sadness and helplessness? This is my first experience with unemployment since graduating three years ago, and I feel like a shell of my former self. I know deep down that things will get better, but I can't help but wonder if they really will. It just really sucks right now.
