I’m really struggling to find motivation to keep on going

27M, I have a “full time” job but it barely covers the cost of living most weeks after rent,food,insurance,fuel I literally have between $40-$60 spare each week.

I know there are people out there in worse situations but I am really struggling mentally and I’m exhausted.

I work 6 days a week at a supermarket that treats us like crap, I’m constantly covering for mangers who just don’t care and nobody else will pick up the slack so it’s forced upon me.

I’ve applied for over 400 jobs in the last 5 months and not a single interview and now my landlord has sold the rental property I’m at I have no idea how I’m supposed to afford a new place and I’m just done. I can’t afford to save, I can’t afford to do anything and the few friends I have all bailed overseas over the past 2 years.

I don’t have family or anyone to reach out to for support and no matter how hard I try or how much I work nothing changes. I’m just so tired and I don’t see any light at the end of this tunnel.

I studied got two degrees and it really just feels like I’ve wasted my life sorry for the depressing rant but I just don’t know what to do or why I should keep doing this every day is the same.

Edit: Cheers to the people who have reached out just finished a 10 hour shift so a little burnt out to reply atm,

As for my degrees they are for aviation management and logistics and a business management degree
I either get told I’m overqualified or don’t have enough experience.

I moved to US prior to Covid and had an amazing job I loved within that industry then made the choice to come back as lockdowns happened I guess I just never really bounced back.
