And "doomed" is a pretty accurate descriptor for how I feel some days. I'm educated, motivated, and yet remain unemployable at any level equal to my worth. I fear starting a family because I can barely make ends meet for myself.

Some days I think I'll end up rioting in the streets before I actually find a proper job. Maybe that is what it will take.
