I have been feeling very frustrated with myself. I graduated college and I am looking for jobs and nothing. It makes me feel not good enough or like I am a idiot. I had it in my head it would only take a month or so to find a job, now it has taken almost 2 and i hate my self for it.

I feel the same way. I don't even know what direction is the right one to go to and I'm afraid that I'll be stuck forever. Most jobs I am not even qualified for. But the degree should count for something though right? I'm here if you need to talk! :)

You shouldn't hate yourself, you should be proud for completing school. Dont blame yourself, its society whos to blame. We spend so much on school and getting a degree only to find out we wont make what we spent to get the degree. Never give up. Remember only the strong willed succeed. Have faith and all will work out you just have to believe in yourself.

Its so hard. It stinks because not having people feel like your a good enough is hard. I know it is nothing personal but it feels that way.

Can i be honest with you? And very blunt? No disrespect intended i promise.

Ok, this advice saved me and gave me the motivation to go out there and get what i want out of life.
Noone is gonna help get what you want out of life, your gonna have to do it yourself cause only you truly know what you want out of life. There will be plenty of walls that make you second guess or even make you doubt yourself but at the end of the day it is you that has to pick yourself up. You will have trials that test you thats just life but if you can overcome these you will come out stronger then ever.
Listen to clint black -the strong one please.
Again no disrespect intended.

I have 3 jobs now. I just have the desire for something that pertains to my degree something full time. I have applied for jobs for at least 2 hours out of the day I know it does not sound like much but it is when your working at least one job a day of not more. I'm motivated and driven discuraged a little but giving up is not an option. If I give up I will never find the job I want.

I am not saying your advice was no good it was. I just never would ask anyone to help me ever. Just thought u could see my point of view

11

Omg. I love that attitude. With that thinking nothing will ever stop you from getting what you want! If i may ask, what is your degree in?

12

Psychology . I am enrolled in a masters program now for a marriage and family therapy degree should take 2 1/2 years. I will find a job with my degree you just have to be patient and work harder

@dakotajean24 Wow, what your doing says alot about you. Not many people can stay focused and obtained what you have. You have alot to offer any company and one day they will see it and come knocking on your door. I can tell you have a good head on your shoulders. Just keep your head up!:slight_smile:

Thank you so much I needed to hear that. Honestly I know I can it just get down cause I want it to be here now. I wanna be successful now. But I need to learn this is part of it. You can't get married with out dating and you can't find a job with out applying

Don't hate yourself I don't want to say this but it took me 9 months!!!! I don't know what you graduated in but perhaps you can freelance? Maybe do some cheap work experience? Companies hire people with experience. Also be active when looking apply to everything, out your CV up online, look up companies you would like to work for and look at their job posts, linked in, research agencies and go to them physically and ask them for jobs they have going on. Goodluck!
