So depressed

For the first time in my life I don't know what to do. I'm normally a very well planned out person when it comes to money and unlike other people who don't have a dime in January because they spent all their finances on Christmas Shopping I had money in the bank. But then my job didn't pay me what was owing to me and I had to use whatever finances I had to survive. Before I knew it I was broke. I don't even know how or when it happened. I normally always have a plan, but now I've none, and borrowing from people is definitely out of the question. Sighssss....I was so depressed I couldn't even work properly yesterday, and my co workers were so worried about me today because I wasn't my jovial self.I just kept to myself all day. I'm hoping that maybe if I vent here I'll feel better,maybe even come up with a plan. So grateful for an anvenue like mylot where I can vent my frustrations.

success1625 I would normally tell you to trust in the Lord that every thing will be ok. But you know what, I will tell you that I will pray for you. Depression should be taken very serious. I have watched it destroy people. Vent away! If it makes you snap out of it, then Vent Away! Try to keep your mind occupied on other things. Dwelling on depression only makes more depression. Think of joyful things, like a smile on someone elses face.

I know how depressing situations like that could be. I guess not much you can do but work hard and get paid. Be with friends and have happy conversations, they usually help in getting your mind of depressing matters.

Being broke is not a good state to be and can be really depressing especially that nowadays we need money to survive. I think it was a good idea for you to vent your depressing thought in here. This way you will keep you mind open my reading comments on how to go about your present situation. Please try to stay focused and do not let it affect your work. It is not good to have a bad performance at a job because many are unemployed nowadays. Do not worry as long as you have work you will have an income, you'll just have to work extra harder to cope with the bills. Find another means of income I think that is another plan you might want to consider. Do not think too much. God will be there too, just do your best! Hope things will get better soon.
