I am thankful to have had the support

Brad was struggling after finishing Uni and felt like a failure.

"I couldn't find a job and got really depressed."

After finishing Uni I remember going through a really tough time. I applied for so many jobs but didn’t even get an interview. It was depressing. All my friends were moving out into sharehouses. I was still living with my parents because I couldn't afford to move out. I kept taking whatever jobs I could get, even though they weren't in the field I had studied. I saw a careers counsellor. I did some volunteering in my field to build up my resume. I felt like a failure. 

I talked to Kids Helpline and they helped by listening and not judging. Eventually a job did come up and I’m so happy about it!

I am thankful to have had the support of Kids Helpline during that really stressful time. I don’t know if I could have made it through without their support.
