I’m about a year out of college with a degree in communication. I’ve been unable to secure a job in that time, and I’ve only gotten a couple of interviews. My parents are telling me I need to get a job by next month. What I’m saying is that I have a lot of work-related stress and anxiety, and browsing this sub consistently makes it worse. I came here looking for comfort and maybe some solutions, and I found a deluge of hopelessness. Now in addition to worrying about freezing and starving to death, my worries about being abused and exploited have been multiplied. And I understand that I come from a position of immense privilege to simply be worried about those things while living off my parents’ money instead of experiencing them. But I legitimately feel like this sub has become a source of mental self-harm for me.
