How do you feel about your decision? Where are you living now? What do you like best? What do you wish you had known?

I have recently lost my job, been dumped by my boyfriend, and have just been experiencing a lot of lows in my life. I constantly look for jobs, go on interviews, but never get picked. I try to talk to my friends but I still am not satisfied. I am not wanting them to tell me what I want to hear but I just don't get much from their advice. I constantly deal with feelings of hopelessness and guilt and quite often I think of what it would be like if I just wasn't here anymore. I would not commit suicide but it's on my mind. I know that that is NEVER an answer (mainly because I have kids) but I am just feeling like I am lost. I feel like no one understands me. I know that I probably need some kinda therapy but I can't afford therapy and I am not getting any type of health insurance so that's out for now. Am I having a breakdown or what? Why do I feel as if I need to do something but I have no idea what it is? Serious answers only please.

Well, I am Deaf, read lips, speak english and sign language. There are times when having conversation with Hearing person...they get impatient when there are times I don't always get all what they say. Lots of times I have them telling me this "Its your problem if you don't get what I said in the first time!" And they won't repeat it. That makes me mad when they do that. I don't think it is fair for Deaf person had to pull all the works to make the conversation easier and I believe Hearing should at least try to help in.
Sometimes with a habit I pretend that I heard everything and respond with yes or no. Because it is embarrassing when you don't always get everything they say.

it seems he is very particular about what "type" of size/shape he likes. i feel that my body does not fit his idea of perfection. i told him that his behaviour upsets me and he said i'm making his life difficult. he doesn't like having to watch what he says all the time, and that i shouldn't be so sensitive. he does not understand why i am taking his comments so personally. and my body image is not his problem and that i should go to the gym if i feel uncomfortable with the way i look. he has NEVER directly said anything derogatory about MY body however. do you think i am reading too much into the situation? am i being silly and taking it personally?
