I was officially diagnosed with anxiety disorder back in November after going to the ER with what I thought was a heart attack (chest pain, elevated heart rate, etc.) Only to discover that I have anxiety and depression. I immediately started taking steps to help. I got on medication, have started going to therapy, and am trying to work through things and implementing them as best I can. However, it feels like I am in a sinking boat and the boat is filling faster than I am able to ladle out the water.

My stress is mostly related to work. I have been actively applying, interviewing, networking, updating my resume, etc. since then and have had no luck. I don't currently get paid a whole lot and simply just want to match my current pay. I have exhausted all sick days and there are no paid leave options for me. 

Last Wednesday I decided to take a bottle of pills to put me out of my misery. It turns out that I only took enough to have a miserable stomach ache and not enough to die. I made sure to tell those close to me and continue trying to do things to make life easier, but it is not easy. I would appreciate any advice, encouragement, support, etc.
