Interest help: I have always been a very happy person up until 2 years ago. - Help.com

You need to come out that depression and fight to get over it. Don’t stay in the house when your boyfriend invites you to family functions.

Is anyone helping you find a job.?

By the way, congratulations on being sober two years. It takes a lot to stay sober and you have done it.

Congrats on quitting drugs! That is quite an accomplishment and it must have taken a tremendous amount of strength to get through that detox time. A lot of times people start doing drugs because of things like depression and anxiety. You said you’ve been depressed since you quit doing drugs, were you happy before doing drugs? Why did you get into drugs? It sounds like you may have depression and it would be a good idea to talk to a counselor and/or a psychiatrist about the best way to treat it.

Keep on pounding the pavement for a job. Even though some people say there are no jobs, if you look hard enough, you will find one.

First of all, you need to see someone about your depression and other problems. I commend you for being sober for two years, but dont beat yourself up about the job thing. No one can find a job these days, but its no excuse for not doing productive things to work towards where you want to be. One of the reasons why you probably had issues with your work situation is because of your depression. 1) volunteer- to gain experience, especially working with people with drug addiction- it shows employers that you have really gained control over your addiction. 2) Go to school- get your feet wet and find something that really makes you happy. 3)Learn at home- learn a language, how to play the piano, take up a hobbie you might be able to parlay into a business, …just do something! Dont sit there and watch soaps all day long like a lot of people do, wasting away their life. There are so many things you can do to better yourself and show an employer that you are serious about working.
