Am I the only one who feels humiliated and disappointed having to depend on my parents or someone else monetarily?
I am 26 years old and i’m almost 6 years unemployed, currently i live with my mother, I think I can say that I have a good life compared to the ones who don’t own a home but I don’t know how long will she keep me under her wings, because it seems that my monetary debt to her only increases every time I consume something here.
I’ve spent some time searching for a job and doing job interviews, the results was; no success, so i decided it’s better wait for some shinning light knock on my door needing an employee even considering that possibility lazyness of my part because i don’t know if these people have something personal against me?
By the way… is very obvious what will happen with me if I don’t achieve independence, to not say tragic.

- Wait so because you didn’t get a job right away you just quit looking and decided that you were going to wait for someone to show up and say “Please unknown seeker we want to hire you!” Like how would they find you? How do they know you’re looking?
- So…What have you been doing for the past 6 years? Are you taking classes? Getting certifications? Do you have any skills? Have you even bothered applying to fast food or retail? Even if you’re playing video games all day, are you even trying to monetize that through Twitch or YouTube? What have you been doing all this time other than mooching off your mom? You can’t just wait and pray and manifest a job. You need to be applying to any and everything you think you can learn to do.
- As hard as it has been to get a job, being unemployed for six years is absolutely a choice. Choose differently. You can still job hunt while working.
