hello and welcome to the forums...


It sounds like you’re really stuck right now, and that’s a horrible place to sit in.


Being underemployed or unsure of the next step doesn’t mean you’re lazy. To me it is an indication that you’re human and going through a rough patch.


You don’t have to spend money or have an internship lined up to start moving forward.


Do you feel you can share a little more about your story?


Every small step counts, and reaching out here can be seen as a positive... wanting to change things around. Listening if you want to chat some more.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been feeling like this. Would you be willing to share any more with us about what's going on? We might be able to offer some supports.

Hi Moody,

 

Here's a few things that have helped me when in a rut: I often like to set my desk up for work and then go for a walk - when I get back I find it easier to get into gear. Sometimes journalling will help too, as it will allow me to explore what may be holding me back.
