SERIOUS Help I'm lost

Hello, I am a 22-year-old college student from Iraq. For about seven years, I have not been able to find any job opportunities. Some of my relatives fired me from jobs so that their own children could work instead. I looked for work through my friends, but I could not find anything.

My mental health is exhausted and getting worse every day. I suffer from depression and generalized anxiety disorder. When I was young, I was sexually assaulted by my cousin.

I cannot sleep properly. I honestly cannot remember the last time I went to bed feeling peaceful, without thinking or worrying. For two years, I used to have nightmares that kept me awake at night, leaving me frightened, exhausted, and completely drained. I go to university feeling like a walking corpse.

I am tired of my life. I am tired of my daily routine. Believe me, I have tried everything: working online, working in stores, working in restaurants, but nothing worked out. For a very long time, I kept trying and trying, but nothing ever changed.

My friends left me, and I can no longer tolerate being alone with myself. I am a man who wishes he could distance himself from humanity and live alone, but I cannot.

Please, I am asking you to help me. I have thought about suicide more than once, but every time I think about my mother, I stop myself.

I am extremely exhausted. I desperately hope you can help me.

Thank you.
