One thing I can assure you of is you will get a job.I know what I am talking about because I've passed through this type of situation.
Never lose hope, because very soon your heart desire will come to pass.
However, in the meantime, please walk around where you are aand try and get something doing even if it is as small as teaching primary school children.
You need this to keep yourself busy, so that you will quickly put away that feeling of killing yourself.
Never you stay at home all by yourself alone, find something to keep yoursellf busy. Put your total and absolute trust in God and you will have a testimony. The God of heaven that did mine will do your own in Jesus Name. Amen. My brother keep faith and keep hope alive, it is well
