almost a year on the job hunt

So my job hunt has been at the moment a year long, and what I'm about to say I say with no disrespect to the people that work there but I hate going to the job center, I hate how unhelpful they are, I hate how I'm made to feel less like a person and more like paperwork that the various work couches just want to hurry me thought the conveyor belt and into something so they don't have to pay me anymore. Between my eye condition making remote work the most viable form of work for me due to getting migraines in fluorescent lighting and just personally wanting to do something in writing. It's just a constant source of stress that eats away at me and my time, and I'm doing everything i'm supposed to, at this point it's just because everywhere I've applied to no one so far has been willing to take a chance on me… or everyone that's also gone for those same positions has been just so much better than me, it's not like I have anyway of knowing.

It's hard to have faith in my abilities and that it's just that no ones willing to take a chance on me after this long but what else can i do, after the year I spent thinking I was going blind there's a lot of things I promised  myself i would do if i made it to the other side ok, and one of them was to not give up on my dreams so easily and that's what i'm going to do.

Sometimes venting out things like this is also good and needed to help keep spirits up, and this post is just that hopefully dear reader I'll have some good news for you in the near future that someones taken a chance on me. Regular blog posts next time I promise,
