I don't know where in the world to go... literally!!
I feel homeless, jobless and absolutely hopeless. I have been looking for a job for the past few months without success and I don't know what to do with myself. I have been looking in the UK, the Caribbean, Canada, US (where my siblings are). I studied and worked in the UK for a few years. Each year was a tremendous stuggle to survive without my family and very few committed friends. I left my job there recently because I felt like I was losing my mind and losing myself, which is not worth me losing, so I made a choice to leave to see my family in the US for sometime elsewhere and jobhunt. It all started well and it has been great being with my family once again. To cut a long story short, I am faced with a dilemma that has been keeping me up almost every night because I don't know what to do. I have the option to return to my home country in the Caribbean where my famiily no longer resides, and look for work there and live on my own. Or I can go back to the UK and look for a temporary job until my work visa expires (in 5 months), then return home. I absolutely do not want to return to the UK because I hated living there before and I know I'll hate it now but I may have a better chance of getting a temporary job there than anywhere else. WHAT DO I DO!! I'm absolutely going to lose my mind if I don't decide really soon!

Thanks for the advice. I have decided to go back home (Jamaica) and find a job there. Depression isn't pretty, especially in dark, gloomy England, so I won't be going back there. I'm a part-qualified actuary, which is a highly specialised field, but it's still hard to find a job, especiallly since I'm not fully qualified. I'm hoping for the best. Thanks a lot for the help :)
