totally feeling your pain guys.
i have a good job now, but a year and a half ago when i graduated college, i couldnt find a job anywhere.
so i worked in a paper factory. hot, sweaty, low pay, 12 hour night shifts. came out every morning sore and hurting from people dropping boxes on me.steel toed boots, hard hat, work gloves, blisters, hot glue burns (got 3 ugly scars on my right arm from that shit and they didnt even pay for the med bill. fuckers).
turtles brother (exador) gave me a helluva peptalk and i started working on my portfolio for an hour every morning after work before i passed out like a rock waiting for the next night to begin so i could work again.
eventually i pulled some mockups and some old projects together and landed a nice job.moral of the story, do what you have to do to survive, but at least 30 minutes to an hour EVERY night/day and it will have been so worth it. seriously.
i know it is hard guys, depression sets in quick but dont lose faith. if you want something, go get it! you've got me rooting for you! and if exador were here, he would tell you the same.best of luck to all of you guys! i wish you the best, and i really mean that.
