Depressed and living in another country
Hey ! I'm 25 almost 26 years old and I'm totally lost, I don't know what to do with my life. Have you ever been through something like this?
My situation- a year and four months ago I graduated from law school and became a fully qualified lawyer however after I graduated I couldn't find a job because they wanted someone with experience and to get it worse my country is going through a recession with high levels of unemployment. College was really harmful to me, when I graduated I had a severe case of depression, anxiety and panic attacks and not getting a job made it worse. However I started a volunteer work that helped me a little bit with my depression although made me realize how unfair the system is and how everything I had learned in college was insignificant. Six months after I graduated I decided to make a exchange to improve my English and it was the best decision I have ever taken. Going to another country and had experienced a lot of different situations made me grow as a person and overcome my depression, anxiety and panic attacks, I even got a boyfriend. I was really happy and decided to renew my course once more. However life is not easy, I had a job as a waitress and I didn't liked because I was being harassed and once a guy followed me when I was going home from the pub and it was really scaring. I had decided to leave the job but I would do it only if I found another job. Unfortunately because of family matters I had to go back to my country for one week and end up losing the job. Going back to my country was really hard even though I could see my family my country situation was worse than before and my depression and panic attack are back. Now I'm unemployed, scared, depressed and I really don't know what to do with my life. Go back to my country would be really destroctive to my mental health and I would lost all the money that I invested. I'm from Brazil and I'm living in Ireland. Please don't judge me I don't want to live in Ireland forever I'm here just to improve my English skills but I have to work to live.
I'm really afraid because I had a major case of suicidal depression I don't want to lose everything that I've conquered.
Any advise? Has someone gone through something similar?
Sorry about my English and the long text. Thank you girls!
