Hi Ry,

I think the thing to focus on is to create possibility instead of lingering over the things that you wish were different. Maybe you can earn some references interning or volunteering somewhere? Instead of staying low when we are unemployed and letting things overwhelm us, perhaps it is better to work on our own self-growth instead. Who is the person you want to become? What would you dream job be? Then create a list of goals and  steps for each, and everyday make progress toward one of the goals. Take those first and next steps, and take the time to focus on the progress you are making, which can be a really beautiful feeling. I think the secret is to be moving forward instead of letting the things we can’t control overwhelm us.
