Please help. I'm so depressed and scared?!
Question: I recently dropped out of law school because it was something i really wasn't interested in. I have my bachelor's degree in psych, but you can't do much with it. I am going to get my master's in early childhood/elementary ed, but it is really hard to get a job teaching where i live. what if i go through with this and then don't have a job? i'm already highly in debt. i don't want to move because i met my boyfriend four months ago and i wouldn't want to leave him in a year. i am so in love with him, he is the only thing is the entire world that makes me happy. i couldn't ask him to leave here because he loves it here. i'm not even sure if he would. i realize i haven't known him that long but the thought of leaving him makes me physically ill. i have been freaking out the past couple of days and seriously want to die. i can't stop crying. i feel so lost. i really wish i had never been born.

You sound like an intelligent woman that is just quite overwhelmed right now. You really do need to find someone local that you can work with and a local job. Maybe a year or two of just being there with him and working something local and getting yourself cheered up and calmed down and then you can pay off some debts and then pursue whatever you decided you really want to do.
Do not hurt yourself as it would hurt him too.........
I think you need some spiritual guidance. Here is the verse that helps me:
Proverbs 3:6
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Worrying is a bad habit, you need to overcome it like any other bad habit. Try to modify the factors under your control, that is the only thing you can do. From http://mshn.org/worry.html
Get a job in town.
please look in your local phone book and find a hotline number and speak with someone now. you need to get help to talk through everything you are going through.
oooh! dont say that! you dont know how special we all are and just like you we would feel that way to, but please dont think you were dead, I used to think that all the time...
I guess if you just moved there then you should try to find someone that knows a good job around there, like just calling places where you might be interested to work. Just take a long breath, and there is still hope! :)
GOD Bless!
You know?
Think in yourself, it maybe - a lot - selfish but women tend to be around men and don
