Seeking guidance for carrer and mental health

Hello everyone,

I hope you're doing well. I find myself in a challenging situation and could really use your advice and support.

Context: I graduated in 2021 with a degree in electrical engineering from a decent college, but unfortunately, I didn't secure a placement. Since then, I've been struggling to find my path and ended up taking random jobs, leading to a significant gap in my career of almost 2 to 3 years. Alongside my career struggles, I've been battling with depression and anxiety, which have been exacerbated by the lack of support from family and friends. Despite seeking help from therapists and doctors, I haven't seen much improvement. Additionally, I attempted the GATE exam without success, as I lack passion and feel limited options are available.

Request: I'm feeling lost and fearful about my future, especially considering my physical and mental health issues. My confidence has taken a hit due to repeated failures, and I find myself fearing everything. I'm reaching out to this community in the hope of finding guidance, support, and perhaps some practical advice on how to regain my confidence and overcome these fears.

Additional Request: If anyone has faced similar challenges or has insights on how to rebuild confidence after setbacks, I would greatly appreciate your input.

Any insights, personal experiences, or suggestions you can offer would be immensely appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any help you can provide.

Warm regards

One of my friend's known person was in a more or less similar situation like you.

Then that person went to Hyderabad and did some IT course there for 6 months or a year and started his career in IT.

Currently that person is having around 2-3 years of experience and he is happy with what he has achieved so far.

Wishing you the best.

I don't know the exact course name but first it was something like an introduction to IT followed by Testing/Automation course. (Or maybe both were part of the same course only).

Will try to get the trainer/training institute name if possible.

Wishing you the best!
