I was diagnosed with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder), and one of my biggest struggles with it is the endless search,the endless quest of seeking an anchor, a reason to live. I have a fractured sense of identity, I struggle with feelings of emptiness and suicidal idealisation and waking up each day is a constant battle. Now imagine going through all that and you're unemployed, with no means of taking care of yourself. What do you do then? Life is already miserable as it is I have these other factors that add to my stress. Jobs are hard to come by nowadays and a degree doesn't guarantee employment anymore. It is hard, really hard. What can I do?
