Why is genuine career help so hard to find as a girl online?

Hey!! I’m genuinely so tired at this point. Every time I ask something related to career help here or on any other platform, most of the people responding are men, and I’m honestly exhausted with the creepy behavior that follows.

I spend so much energy explaining my situation seriously, and instead of actually helping, people start making weird comments. One guy literally told me my voice made him horny after we had a completely normal conversation about career stuff. Others ask for pictures. Some act professional at first, ask for my resume or LinkedIn to “help” or “review” it, and then later the whole vibe changes.

People use LinkedIn or resumes to get personal details like numbers or socials and then randomly start texting on WhatsApp or trying to make things personal instead of professional. It’s honestly so frustrating because I’m genuinely trying to start my career, not deal with this shit every single time I ask for help.

And what honestly shocks me the most is how people can know everything someone is already struggling with and still look for their own creepy benefit in the situation. Like seriously??? This level of selfishness and lack of basic humanity is insane to me.

At this point I just feel more comfortable asking women for help. So if any girlies here are hiring, can refer me, guide me, or even just connect professionally, please do.

And please don’t come at me with “not all men” or “mostly men are in higher positions.” Please, I seriously do not wanna hear that right now.

I’m legit tired of this job market,people,lifeeee

I’m tired of trying constantly, and now I don’t even have the energy to deal with anything anymore. I belong to a very small town where there’s no part-time work culture, and I just want to leave home. I’ve been trying for 2 years to escape this toxicity, but I’m still unable to. Now I guess death feels like the only escape because I’m not even able to upskill myself here. This place feels like hell… ahhhhhhhhh.

I’m literally so exhausted of this life!!!!!!!!!

I just don’t have the energy to fix myself seriously, and the worst part is I’m even unable to express the pain because it’s been years and I’m just trying to fix it, but nahhhh… it feels like the universe is just against me. I know people say “be positive,” dude how can someone stay positive in a situation like this when everything around you sucks? And at this point, I’m even tired of myself. I need a break, a legit break, but I can’t go out of this house. And if you’re gonna ask me whyyy… it’s just my family!!!!!!

I’m exhausted from the job search. I’ve just lost my health, mental and physical, everything on its way, and I am so overwhelmed right now I can’t even talk to anyone about what is really going on with me. I just don’t want to feel anything seriously!!!!

I’m 24F and I’ve never dated anyone. Not because I never wanted to but because of the kind of experiences I’ve had with men over time. It left me with a lot of fear and trust issues and now I feel genuinely scared of letting any man get close to me. It’s not just hesitation, it’s like this constant feeling that I might get hurt or not be understood so I just shut down before anything even begins.

At the same time there are moments when I really want someone. Like a partner I feel safe with, someone I can share things with and just be comfortable around. That feeling hits me hard sometimes but I still can’t let my guard down.

A few years ago I used to think the reason I wasn’t dating was my weight. But in college people were actually attracted to me and a lot of them tried to make me understand that my weight isn’t the problem. Still there’s a part of me that’s stuck in that mindset like I’ll find someone once I fix everything about myself.

I don’t know why I can’t let go of that thinking. Maybe it’s fear.

It gets worse when you try talking to someone and they don’t even try to understand you. They just keep talking about themselves or what they want and it makes you feel even more closed off.

Even online I’ve stopped trying to make friends because it just feels like it’s full of creeps or people who want something casual or superficial. It’s rare to find something genuine.

On top of all this I still struggle with body image and insecurity and sometimes I feel like what if I never find someone who actually accepts me.

I’m not posting this for attention or upvotes. I’m just sharing how I feel and trying to understand it better so if you don’t have anything kind to say please don’t comment.

So I just wanted to ask if anyone else has felt like this and how did things turn out for you. Did you eventually find someone you felt safe with and how did you move past the fear.

Because right now my 20s feel really overwhelming.

Hi everyone, I really need some honest advice and support right now.

I’ve been stressing myself out so much about getting a job. I have a 2 year gap and I’ve been trying different domains, mostly trying to break into IT, but I’m just not able to. My family doesn’t want me to go out and work, but I’ve been fighting really hard for it.

At this point, I feel like I’m falling apart.

The stress is affecting my health badly. I’ve been having constant panic attacks, hormonal issues like PCOS, and diabetes. Yesterday I was admitted to the hospital with IV drips in both hands and even then all I could think about was getting a job.

I feel stuck in a really negative loop. I overthink so much that I ended up falling, broke my leg, and even had a head injury, and still my mind won’t stop obsessing over my career.

I don’t even know anymore, is it worth it.

I’m scared that if I don’t get a job right now, my career will be over, but at the same time I feel like I’m destroying my health trying.

I’ve tried to slow down but I just can’t. I literally just had a panic attack before writing this.

Has anyone been in a similar situation, how do you deal with this kind of pressure and fear, does it get better?

I genuinely feel like I need help.
