I think you are getting great advice - and advice from people who have been where you are now. You had structure in your life while you were still in school - and a goal to achieve.
Now you have graduated and you are floundering - questioning everything in your life because you have the time to dwell on it.
The job market is horrible - but it is horrible for everyone!
Volunteering for something you love to do can be very rewarding - go to a local school - read to the little kids - or volunteer at a shelter - or whatever activity that would be rewarding for you.
You know what is funny? In a few years, you will be settled down - know exactly where you are going - and miss these days when you had so much time on your hands.
It WILL all fall into place and what you are going through is completely normal!

Thank you everyone - I am still adjusting. I am about to leave for the weekend up in Lakeside, and I also purchased a book that I thought was of a good read for myself, to boost my self esteem, my happiness, and my postive outlook to whatever it may be in my way in life...

This is the book I got - so I plan on reading this over the weekend. :) Just a nice, quiet, some time alone with friends, and right by the lake is what I just need!
I'll bring back pictures.. :)

Just another voice to say that I felt the same way when I graduated from college. It was like I somehow expected everything to magically be better afterward and I was tremendously let down when it wasn't, ESPECIALLY when I realized that I couldn't cope with my chosen field.
It's been almost a year and I'm only just starting to get over the depression that started when I graduated.
