I Am In Depression, Please Advise by platodeen(op): 2:26pm On May 23, 2019
I am moving gradually unto depression, unconsciously.

At over 30, I have no job, wife or children

All job adverts keep asking for, '...below 24' and I am over 30.

All applications and CVs sent through the social media and job sites have only landed me only one interview since 2018 that I have been applying.

Only a very few of my applications were replied even after using, LinkedIn and several other job sites to include NL.

With respect to my job search, please advise base on this facts;

* I studied Accounting (BSc) (2.2)
* I am chartered
* I am above 30
* and unemployed


Motivational insults are acceptable

Do you have relevant work experience?
Re: I Am In Depression, Please Advise by SageMK: 2:34pm On May 23, 2019
It's never too late to start.
Don't wait for someone to employ you.

I am not advocating that you drop your degree.
But it's time to look for something and start.
If you invest your all, it'll blossom.

Don't be in a hurry to marry and have kids without any financial security because the way you rush in, that's how you'll rush out. Build something first & they'll come.

*DEPRESSION IS REAL*

�� Stop asking singles when are they getting married.

�� Stop asking couples when they are having kids.

�� Stop telling fat people to slim down, Stop telling slim people to eat so that they can get fat, Stop body shaming people, Stop putting pressure on people.

�� You don't have any idea what people are passing through in life.

�� If you don't have any nice thing to say to people, keep quiet, your mouth no go smell.

�� Finally Ladies please stop this competitive life style it's doing more harm than good to your person.

�� Fashion will come and go, Phones are evolving everyday, you can't own all, Be contented with the little you have now.

�� Suicide everywhere,
Talk to someone instead of taking your own life.

�����
*GOD BLESS YOU ALL*

Re: I Am In Depression, Please Advise by jesmond3945: 6:04pm On May 23, 2019
Op I understand how you feel, you have every right to be angry and sad. From your write up, it seems most jobs you applied for were advertised online and of course you know that anything online in Nigeria there is so much politics involved. If it was abroad, you would be given equal opportunity, However all hope is not lost. Why don't you start your masters degree programme, while looking for job. Where is your location? You can attend events well dressed, network and make connections. You can also cold call on offices to submit your cv. Restrategize and put Jesus first, you would definetly make it.

Im suree you have all the attention you desired. I'm certain you don't know what being doomed mean. OP is even in a better situation than you are, cus from how you sound something is eating you deep.
Re: I Am In Depression, Please Advise by ise82(m): 6:13pm On May 23, 2019
Start from somewhere. Teach in a school; grow and move on. My friend drove maruwa after graduation from unilag for almost a year. He didn’t know anybody there. He walked to the chairman and told them he needed a job. He made money and sponsored his master degree program. Another friend relocated to lag from saggy like 5 years ago without any degree and taught music in a secondary school and played keyboard in a church. He saved up for his OND program at Yaba tech. And later relocated to Canada last year. Guy leave depression change something about your ego. Move with ppl that can change your life.
Cheers!

Re: I Am In Depression, Please Advise by NigPatriot(m): 6:16pm On May 23, 2019
OP, many are in the same category just as you are. Depression will not solve the issue rather make it worse. I'll advise, you work more on yourself. I'm sure you've heard this several times. But it's the REAL truth. You have to be stern with yourself. Your life can change in a year. When I say change I mean all rounder. But it's all stringed on you.
*Consume yourself with knowledge. (Read, watch)
*Learn a skill; (from YouTube, from training centres.)
*Be positive; you can't keep carrying aa depressed look and expect the right people to come your way.
*Sell yourself where you go. ( Be so good they can't ignore you ). Great salesman know this trick.
*Take some days off, just with yourself, phone off, notepad available, pen. Ask yourself heartfelt questions, and demand answers.
* Stick with all these judisciously with all discipline, and I bet you in 6months, you'll have a different story.

Remember a dream delayed is not a dream denied.
