Was productive at the beginning of all this bull shit but slipped hard into depression. I miss my Job so fucking much its killing me. I'm now part time at home depot making in two weeks what I'm used to making in a day, and there is no sign of my industry coming back before 2021. Going back to retail after being successfully self employed in a field I love for a decade is humbling to say the least.
I had a calling out of nowhere to pick up the bible for the first time a few days ago. I finished the book of Mark and and plowing through Luke. I also watched the documentary Belly of the Beast: Directors Cut which really put me on course to believe this is a battle of good and evil and our President was chosen by God to fight this evil.
I joined a Gym yesterday and lifted for the first time in 10 years. Went back today and did not skip leg day. I'm sore, and tired, but that negative voice in my head that has been saying the worst shit to me over and over and over again the last few weeks has been silenced since my first set at the gym yesterday.
Just wanted to share with some people who would understand. I fucking love this place.
Thanks Frens.
EDIT: Thanks for all the encouragement, advice, and kind words. I love you all.
Ditto, got furloughed can't get an interview, 2months out of work, stopped working out daughter leaving for college tomorrow and bills piling up. Wife is staying positive and supporting me so I decided today I'm going to turn this around. I've been very dedicated to sending out resumes almost every day since unemployment but I'm going to put down the booze, put on a smile and be the man God intended me to be. Don't know how this is going to turn out but I am going to pray, eat well, work out and do the best I can. Keep the faith fren. Well get through this.
