Hard couple of days

I just need to vent a bit. Yesterday, I got rejected for a job I applied, that I really wanted to get. Thought the interview went really good, but apparently, not good enough. My life has been quite an up and down (mostly down) in the last 1,5 years. Got separated after 10 years, which was, and still is, extremely painful. Lost my flat, and quit my job, because I couldn't do it anymore, since I felt so depressed all the time. I just feel like I can't get my feet on the ground. I really try to look after myself, stopping drinking was part of that. Also, I started therapy and did a lot of working out. And while all this made me feel a bit better, still these setbacks really wear me down. I not really tempted to drink, but sometimes I really wonder why the hell I am even trying still.
