I have difficulty filling in job application forms

I am trying to fill in job application forms but I feel very low. I've got some bad news recently as well. But that feeling was even before I received the bad news. Nobody is going to extend the job application deadlines for me. I cannot concentrate and I feel helpless

Make sure to be kind to yourself @Kate_20 you're doing the best you can with what you're going through right now. Trying to complete a job application after having some bad news is really difficult and it's understandable to hear you're finding it hard to concentrate. It's okay to take the time you need to look after yourself
It sounds like you're applying for more than one job at the moment is that right?

Thank you for sharing with us.
Job applications are so hard these days, there are so many things to consider when you apply for a new job. Updating your CV is hard enough, but writing a cover letter, some places have scenario quizzes, all these forms to fill in etc. We can give so much of our energy to applying and then when we don't hear back from employers it can really weigh us down, especially when you have a time limit or deadline to hit which is added pressure.
Do you feel like there is an urgency to find a job right now?
Be patient with yourself and take things at your own pace. If you can't concentrate, it may be best to listen to your body, and do something you don't need concentration for, like taking a walk in nature? Maybe then you can somewhat clear your mind from everything going on right now. If you are not allowed to share your bad news, are you able to share your feelings surrounding what's happened, without giving it away?
