Im feeling hopeless right now

I’m just feeling so negative about my situation lately, especially when it comes to my work search. I’ve realised I need to start moving forward and get into work because I’m honestly fed up with being stuck in the same place. I feel desperate at this point I want something suitable to come up, and I am genuinely trying. I’ve got something happening on Wednesday, but I know I can’t rely on that alone, so I’m thinking seriously about backup plans. I’ve already tried contacting the organisation that arranged it to talk things through, but because of the bank holiday, no one’s available. I didn’t have counselling today either, and no support groups are running, so I’m feeling really alone. I know there is still some support out there, but real change needs to happen if I want to improve my wellbeing and move forward properly.
Being in limbo like this just sucks it’s exhausting and makes me feel useless. It’s like I’ve spent years going in circles, and I can’t carry on like this. I’m thinking of reaching out to recruitment agencies to help, and I’ll keep applying for jobs, go to the thing on Wednesday, and just see how it goes without pinning all my hopes on it. I know I’m putting in the effort I’ve been trying for a long time but I just want things to finally change. I feel shit every day. I feel useless, anxious, stupid, and inferior. I’m bored out of my mind, stuck in this limbo, and I can feel myself struggling more and more. The pressure’s building and I know I sound like a broken record, but this is how I genuinely feel every single day. I’m not just sitting here doing nothing I’m trying but I still feel lost and it’s scary, especially when I’ve been worried about my future for years. It’s just so shit. I'm feeling alone right now. I don't know when things will get better. Like my issues aren't like severe or anything, things overall are not too bad in life but I just want to move forward with getting into work it, it won't fully cure things but yh it will definitely definitely help me as long as it's suitable and it all works out for me.
