Feel desperate when thinking about busy season is only one month away. I have been on job market about 2 month and see significant decrease in jobs sponsor h1b working visa. I don’t have any offer at this moment and won’t be able to quit because of working visa. At the same time, just break up with boyfriend. Just feel devastated mentally.

Stay the course as long as you can. But if you can’t, it’s ok, I promise the sun will rise tomorrow. Our careers ebb and flow, some seasons you’re an all star, others you are average. This is human and why building relationships is so important. Allow yourself to feel worst case scenario, and if it’s not THAT bad, then move forward with peace knowing you are giving what you can and whatever happens, happens.
