questioning everything?

I am almost 25 and have been out of college
for 2 1/2 years and have not found a job in my field of political science. I have had data entry jobs but any lab rat can manage that. I am looking to return to school in the fall to become a paralegal, but right now, I am unemployed and the temp agency is of no help. All my friends are from college and they are all married,engaged or involved. I have no prospects of men now and none on the horizon. I feel like a failure to my family and what little friends I have. My self esteem is the lowest it has ever been and I am trying to hide it. They say the sun comes up the next day, well all I've seen are thunderstorms for a long time. Does anyone else feel like me?

You are not alone. I think if you have checked out this site you can see that many people feel the same way. I can't give you any solid advice because I am pretty much down in the dumps too. But I have found it helpful to get in the car and drive, listen to some music and try and relax. I hope things get better for you soon.

Thank you for the advice. Music might help.
I have been accepted to school, but other things in my life haven't been looking good.
Perhaps I haven't been patient enough, but how long does a person have to struggle before luck changes? Anyway I hope your life improves with time. Good luck and best wishes for the future.

I'm feeling ya! I'm 22 and I graduated December 2005. My life seems like it is in a million pieces too. I don't know where I belong, and I'm having to move with my parents. I high school and college I had lots of friends and I was always busy, but now it seems like I'm all alone. I graduated before most of my friends and the ones that are graduated are married or engaged. But, back to what you were asking. I have read to get away from my personal life. Like someone else said music does help too.

Yea, I've gotten use to the rain. Now, when it doesn't "rain", I feel worse.
