Job Search and Mental Health

[dewline]

Someone's willing to pay attention to this, and a good thing, too. I've been getting some kind of mental-health support for over five years through one of the local community health centres, whether I was employed or not. The mental-health supports weren't sought specifically because of the job search, but so what?

Meanwhile, I'm working on designing a birthday card for one of my nephews. In additional to helping with family solidarity in its way, it's skills-training with graphic design 'ware. I can count it as a "job search activity", right?

Definitely, all experience helps, you never know when you'll use what, and I'm glad you're getting support.

Now I think of it, last time I suppose I must have submitted on the order of fifty cover letters, from the position of already having a decent job, in that I searched for quite a few months, submitting maybe a couple per week and, eventually, didn't turn down any offers if I didn't have a better in hand.

Graphics skill? Oh, hell yes!
