    The whole fucking world seems to be falling around me. I'm so fucking broke that I can't afford the oil change coming up.

    I already can't afford the brakes, the coolant flush, and my poor cat is overdue for a vet visit for his distemper.

    All of that is money I don't have and won't have. I got optimistic. I know better than to build any hope or have any expectation, but I really thought I was getting that job.

    All the savings is gone. I don't know what to do. Anyone have work for me?

    @jeffowski I was right there the last few months... still not great, but who cares about me. Stay strong and remember that when anxiety is high, it may seem like the world is out to get you. It's just indifferent, and it sucks, and it shouldn't be this way, but somehow we survive when it counts. My boring and unrequested advice is to try not to worry about what you can't directly control... or at least try not to consider it a personal failure. As the world is clearly not optimizing for our success. Fight like hell and take what you need for yourself anyway.
