Arms against depression

Immagine
Hi everybody, here is a list of tools I use for combating depression from unemployment. A swimming pool season ticket, the most useful thing you can bring with you when you wake up "What colour is your parachute?" a book by Mr Bolle on how to find your dram job, if any.

This database will be updated on a regular basis.

Nojob. Unemployed. Hi, here I am. And I am not the only one But, unlike them, I am alone. So I resoluted to take this as a chance to think over my adventurous life, with the aim to try to make it even more adventurous, and to seed the seeds of success. I have thanked my emplyers for what they could give me, I have bought myself a cheap but nice printer, named Clara, super-efficient and still smelly of plastic and petroleum just as babies smell like an internal organ when they see light for the first time. I resoluted to give myself a routine during the future days I will be home alone looking for myself, and some exterior targets, so not to lose sight of the time, and not to lose my mind. This is the same psychologist recommended for the victims of Abruzzo's heartquake in Italy I decided that: I will go to swim every day at 8am I will lose 5 kilos, together with a friend (but still, 5 kilos each!), by the 10th of July I will keep track of my experience on this blog, once ...
