- that's great, (same here) - it means that at least you don't have those problems on top of everything else.
I think a lot of us have felt close to the way you're feeling. Many years ago things were very bad for me and I had planned my exit
from life perfectly - and came within minutes of doing it.
As hard as it seems things do change -it can be quite amazing just how it all comes about. Please hang in there and try to look on the positive side. I also know that the positives seem to be hugely out weighed by the negatives when money and family problems are involved.
You have more guts than me (and probably most of us on this site) in the fact that you have outed your feminine desires to your family. That alone shows what a determined person you can be.
It's very easy to get really down and so when you go for job interviews your abilities just don't come across. I've been there and done that - I had been unemployed for 6 months and attended loads of interviews and got no where. Now years later I've got a great job - and I'm the one who now conducts the interviews to employ new people - and I now realise where I had been going wrong - as I was drained and didn't come across as enthusiastic and positive. It can be a vicious circle.
Please keep going, you have many, many friends on this site who care about you. It will come good in the end, I promise.
PS: Are there any girls in the Taxachussetts area who can offer some help to Katie in the form of employment referals or guidance? -
If you were here in Australia we'd look after you, there's a great sense of looking out for each other here. Don't worry, things do change....:hugs:

I do need to look on the bright side of things, yes there are sader stories than mine, but that is just it, this is my nightmare. I'm only 32, and being a vet has harden me a bit, but I have to reconize I'm still human. I didn't get the job yest, and have another interview today at 1300 my time. It is a 2 week temp job. not good pay of type of job but it is something. I need to go. Hugs to all whom care enough to write in, your thoughts really do help :love:
Sit down. Take a few deep calming breathes. Then list your blessings. The first being ... you woke up today.
