I didn't have a job and was living with my mother before.
I still won't have a job and still be living with my mother afterwards.
No change and no care in the world. I'm actually a couple months from suicide, maybe slit my wrists with my physics diploma, finally put it to good use.

I'm in a similar situation to you in Ireland, except I have a degree in Business and Japanese. I've also just come out of a 4 year relationship which kinda ended due to me being unable still a job and all the spinoff effects that has for a man. If you want to chat anytime i'm here anyway, it's fucking shit but I don't think i'll be taking that alternative route yet as I know if I was living in a different country my life would be different and it's the same for you too regardless of how you're feeling at the moment.

Is there anyway you can work with people in your community to come up with a local currency and/or barter system? Even bitcoins but I get that people of all ages are not so into that. This is how others in other countries have managed to keep busy when times like this happened and how you stick it to the bankers. Hope you are just joking about the suicide part, we need people like you to mobilize.

Sigh.... a giant news story developing and I will never know about it because of how shitty /r/news has become.

There are many other sources of news than just reddit you know.

I remember listening to a podcast that mentioned ATMs and banks would close the week before implementing martial law. Of course, I realize saying that sounds a little 'out there.' I can try and find the video on Youtube where it was being discussed. Other than that, I don't have any real sources to back this up, unfortunately. /:
Stay alert, stock up, and be prepared. Good luck to you! (:

In Athens its half past midnight now and as all Greeks have told us: "Except for the ATM queues, everything is surprisingly normal".
So as the revolution has been postponed, everybody in Greece has gone to bed to work hard tomorrow and to pay back the debts.
Hence as a thank you to the Greek contributors, Ladies and Gentlemen, please rise in honor of the National Anthem of Greece as played at the 2012 London Olympics:
