I am really feeling depressed & useless today. I just got turned down for an interview at a company I was really excited about. Apparently, the HR person turned my down because on the second interview, I made the stupid mistake of dressing a little too casually. Everything else was fine.

The company is super super casual, & I made an error in judgement. Now I feel so bad, & stupid. I just feel like crawling home, lying in my bed & crying all day. I'm just not having any luck getting a job, & it's starting to affect my self-esteem. I don't feel like I can talk to anyone in my life about this, because they either pity me too much, or start making criticisms that don't seem to fit, and hurt me alot.

I feel like I am being rejected by the world right now. I am at work, and I can barely concentrate on the job, or stop the tears from coming.

Does anyone have some words of wisdom for me? I feel at a complete loss right now - - --
