You are rejected, but you gain interview experience. Self-doubt is really a waste of time.
You get it, you’ll figure it out along the way. You got in!
Make sure that you have no regrets about what you should have done. Do one exciting thing per year.
No job or romance is more important than your self respect.
Also, charge for any unique skills/services that you can offer.
I left a stable but draining teaching job in order to protect my mental health.
Even though this was a big risk, it was the best decision I ever made.
NOTHING is more important than your mental health.
Don’t feel bad if you are still living at home and cannot afford to rent/buy. I’m 30 and still living at home, saving to buy.
Everybody has the right to change their mind and to leave a situation which is not beneficial for them.
This is hurtful and hard to accept, but it is the truth.
Furthermore, people will want you to stay in a negative place because it’s entertaining and makes them feel better about their own lives.
Just don’t do it.
You may never get the apology and empathy that you seek, so it is important to accept that every battle cannot be won, and gain validation internally, rather than externally.
