I don%26#039;t understand why you can%26#039;t find a stable job in web design. There%26#039;s plenty of need for people in that line of work. It may not pay as well as it used to, but the opportunities are still there.

Have you tried freelancing or operating on a contract basis? There are a number of on-line job placement services that are free to those seeking employment.

Moving to a new location for a new job is not expensive. Cost of gas is all it takes, really. Sleep in the car, get a cheap Motel 6 room when you get there to shower and get a good night%26#039;s sleep before your first day at work. Alternate nights sleeping in the car and Motel 6 rooms so you can stay presentable until the paychecks start coming.

It ain%26#039;t necessarily fun or comfortable, but it can be done.

Dear %26quot;Trapped,%26quot;

The only way you are trapped is in your thinking. Employers do not think people are overqualified, no matter what the degree they have. So apply for anything that pleases you, and if the interviewer asks you about why you are not applying for something in your field, tell them you have decided to switch fields. There are people with master%26#039;s degrees working at McDonald%26#039;s and similar.

Student loans are available for almost everyone, check it out before you think you can%26#039;t get them. Inquire at the school of your choice, they will be of the most help.

Get help for your depression, it can really drag down your education. Go to a community college until you are sure what major you want to study, it%26#039;s much cheaper. Good luck.
