I've always been self employed, over ten years at this point. At this point, I've honestly been living off savings for a couple of years. Being self employed income is always up and down, I honestly have always made bulk of income in slow bursts and then nothing for a while. My spiral started because of a bad depression where I didn't do anything for a while. Now I just can't get anything going.
I'm at a point where I don't know what to do. I'm depressed, I'm scared money. I have over 100k in a 401k that I'm draining because that's all I have left.
Would it be best to say fuck it, use that money to try and make more money? Or avoid tapping into it more? I'm just not going to get anywhere as scared money, but at this point don't know what to do. I want to make money back and recoup for lost money/time, at same time even though I have 100K+ in retirement I'm acting like I'm poor on verge of going broke and not spending any money and stressing over every little thing.
My resume is pretty blank, a couple of months ago I accepted a job but the guy ghosted me. I also felt like a huge failure and didn't like how I felt so went back to try and make money on my own.
