Stuck and depressed - don't know what to do. Advice?

<p>I think it’s important not to panic and commit to something too fast-- especially something that will cost you a lot of money like a second degree. You CAN make the same mistake twice.</p>

<p>That said, my degree is in political science and I’ve found I have options in a fairly wide variety of industries. I was also lucky enough to find a position with a company that is very open to letting you move around to different departments and try different things, really anything you can prove you’re good at once your foot is in the door. I worked kind of an iffy job there for a year to prove I was valuable and then just recently moved to something better that I like and can really advance far in very quickly. I wonder if you’ve really exhausted all your favorable options with your current degree. I almost went back to school, for accounting actually, and in my case I didn’t because I couldn’t afford it and that turned out to be for the best.</p>
