Good Luck.
new survey from Britain shows that third of young, unemployed people regularly "fall apart" emotionally. They are so stressed or unhappy that they cannot control their emotions, so they have problems living "normal" life. survey is from youth charity called the Prince's Trust. Its researchers asked questions to 2,200 people who did not have job. Almost half of them said they often felt anxious about everyday situations, and that they tried not to meet new people. One in eight of those surveyed said they were too stressed to leave house. charity said: "Thousands of young people feel like prisoners in their own homes. Without right support, these young people become socially isolated."

Many of these young people struggle with day-to-day life, which means it becomes more and more difficult to find job. Britain's Employment Minister Esther McVey said: "Our young people are some of best and most talented in world." She said it was important to try and match these people with right jobs. Researcher David Fass added: "Young people are our future and it is important that we invest in them and provide them with tools they need to reach their full potential." Jack, 25, explained how hard it was for him to be unemployed. He said: "I would wake up and wouldn't want to leave house. I stopped speaking to my friends and I had absolutely no confidence speaking to people."
