Being unemployed can be very depressing. The best antidote is ACTION and RESOLVE.
Approach your job search as if it is a full time job - work at it 8 hours a day.
You've disciplined yourself and gutted it out before in many ways: in sports, in college, on impossible projects with impossible deadlines, giving birth the hard way (no drugs). You can do this!
Apply the same mentally tough tactics you drew on before: Focus, Develop a Plan, Filter out Distractions, Keep a postiive mental attitude, Keep in touch with people, Do reality checks and be brutally honest with youself. Get up every day and exhaust all possibilities.
At the end of the day, you will have the satisfaction of knowing you did everything you could. Do it again tomorrow.
Good Luck and God Bless All Job Seekers!
