Suicide is not a reasonable choice. Quit. Reset. Declare bankruptcy if you have to. There's no dishonor in a personal struggle.

Money isn't the answer to most of life's problems. Getting in with the right company isn't the solution either.

These jobs are all just jobs. Garnering the approval of a hiring manager at one of these companies should be an ego boost, but not garnering it is no failure at all. It's not a measure of your aptitude or abilities. It's not a measure of you as a person.

It's very easy to get caught up in the moment and get caught up in the pressure of a work environment and lose sight of what matters.

What matters first and foremost is your own mental health. Take care of you. Nobody else can.
