Will my family support me if I change my career?

Question

Hi doctor,

I am an engineering graduate. I am unemployed and fed up with everybody's reaction regarding my career. So, I avoid family gathering or party. I did not get a job yet, and it makes me frustrated. I am not able to find a right path and feel like crying. I am not happy with this situation. Sometimes, I doubt myself. Should I do something else now? Will my family support me if I change my career? I get a headache when I think about all my friends, who have a job or do business.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Please do not feel bad about yourself. For a hard working person, any degree is good. Engineering is not a bad profession, just do not lose hope. Continue to do hard work and prove your worth. Please take the job even if the company does not pay much. It will help in finding a way out of your depression. Work hard, and you will develop confidence. Most of the successful people are hard working engineers. If your depressive symptoms persist, then visit a psychiatrist for career counseling. Thank you.
