Being on benefit sucks.
Sep. 20th, 2011 06:01 pmI hardly have money to leave the house, never mind actually conduct some kind of social life.
And it is a vicious cycle - the less time I spend with people, the more depressed I feel, and the harder it becomes to do productive things like look for work.
How the hell does anyone deal with this without going insane?
Desperately needed: social contact and support.

Thanks for listening, you all.
Edit - I'm slowly making improvements on the money side. Bit by bit! And I'm going to throw myself into the Looking For Work this evening, yes I am.
