    That’s exactly what I did.
    Got an underpaid shit job that was forced to take anyone.
    Went to therapy for a year to overcome application anxiety.
    Started a job application marathon.
    Landed my dream job half a year later.

      Wow you are the success story I needed to hear. I’ve been struggling with depression and unemployment for more than a year, and recently got a plebe job at Famous Retail Chain. I did some therapy and it helped but I’m now running out of government support for it so I won’t be able to afford it anymore. I’m considering a psychologist online in my country of origin which would be substantially cheaper.
