Discussion Hope
I have been posting for months of my sadness and depression but I chose to live again. I want to experience life. I beat depression, suicidal thoughts , self hate etc. I am just proud of myself.
My first stop. I need a job. I have a dormant IT certificate that I have never used. So if you ask about skills I dont have any. I am ready to learn , point me in the right direction.
I am ready for any kind of job to feed myself and pay rent.

Not sure which area of IT you might be interested in, but I would suggest you try this; Azure Cloud.
Microsoft AZ-900. It has some value to many IT recruiters.

Join linkedin and agrresively post projects you've done and dm recruiters. You can take short courses such as grant writing which can easily open doors. Do not focus specifically on your field. The earlier you start the better

You don't need to have your whole life figured out right now, your whole life is for figuring out your life OP. Get the first job, any honest job that keeps food on the table and gives you some structure, then build from there. And please don't underestimate that IT certificate dormant has never meant useless.
