One thing after another

I had a call that I didn’t get the job I interviewed for, and I’m feeling anxious about when I’ll finally secure a job after a year of setbacks. Despite receiving some support and having a few options, I tend to focus on the obstacles. Being at home is boring, and while I want to pursue hobbies, they require money I don’t have without a job. I also don’t want to resort to volunteering instead of finding a paid position. This wait has been frustrating and is taking a toll on my confidence. I'm going to try to look for extra support but it just feels like 1 thing after another with setbacks and stuff.
