Terrible Almost-job Grief And Absent-family Grief – Need Some Human Input?

I’ve been out of work for two years. Living on savings and unemployment, so I’m getting by for now. The past two years have been hellish. Lots of isolation and stress. Moved to NY to be closer to family, but that didn’t help completely b/c some of my close family does not see me (lifestyle differences or laziness on their part). Ex: haven’t seen my four grandkids in four months, despite being a short subway ride away and asking my son repeatedly to let me visit.
Last month I got a callback from a job inquiry (in itself a big deal, cause my field is pretty niche). The director of the agency/think tank said they had possible positions I”d be interested in. I followed up, the hiring people said they just needed the director’s official okay, and that was a month ago. My stuff has gone into a black hole and my emails to the director unanswered. I don’t know what happened, but the job is going off into the sunset without me astride.
After these last two years, this was the closest I”ve come to a job (and in my field no less!). I was okay before this all came up (had learned how to cope over the last two years), but my hopes getting up and then going nowhere has really thrown me for a loop. I have an upset stomach alot and have a hard time getting out. The situation with my family is also weighing heavily.
I know that some will suggest looking outside my field (I’m preparing to do so by getting recertified in what I got my MA in instead of my PhD field), so that’s already in motion.
Others may suggest getting together with those in my situation – honestly, just thinking about doing that depresses me more, and I know that I’m not alone in feeling that way.
This isn’t really about practical suggestions – it’s about dealing with the grief that my concurrent almost-job hopes dashing and my absent family and grandkids are bringing up in me. There’s no happy pill that works for me and sometimes the sadness is just crushing. I do take care of myself (excercise and eating right), but sometimes (like this past week as the days ticked by again with no response from the job people) it is just sooo hard.
Thanks for reading and listening.

I Don’t Know What I Want In Life?

Hey I’m Tarik, 18 and very confused at this point in my life.
As a kid I’ve always known what I wanted to be, I was good at drawing and loved doing it. So I wanted to be a cartoonist and eventually make cartoons that appear on TV. I had this ambition until I was about 12-13.
Then Golf Came into my life, I started hitting balls on the driving range and I was actually pretty good at it. My dad would take me to the driving range and get me lessons and at that point I knew I wanted to become a pro golfer. I loved golf, I watched it on TV, practiced as much as I could but then…prices went up. Lesson were extremely expensive and we weren’t rich and in addition the golf course I went to was miles and miles away. So I had to pack it in and as of now I’ve lost interest in it (still miss it though).
Business was another thing that amazed me, I’ve never liked the idea of working under someone and I’ve always wanted to run a successful business which puts a smile on my face. In which I am, I have a few small business which make decent money for what they are but I don’t enjoy running them because they’re not related to any niche that interest me.
You see my dad sort of told me to venture into these niches because of the money they bring. But to be honest, although I know I can make a lot of money with these businesses, it still doesn’t motivate me since just don’t enjoy doing it.
Right now I’m in college (in the UK this is basically high school not uni) and I’m studying a few subject but have no idea where ill go after that. I’m always doodling in class because I love creating characters and people over my shoulder usually say the drawings look good (but I know they’re no where near as good my friends drawings). I also create stories in my head when day dreaming and I love imagining the characters, its great fun but I wouldn’t know how to make them a reality. My main objective in life as of now is to travel the world, I’ve seen some of if and it really is amazing. England is way to cramped, I want to leave as soon as I can. But I want to be in control of my life by having a successful business to fund my world trip. But you see?
There’s this and there’s that and there’s this. I DON’T know what to do with myself! and I definitely don’t want to have a midlife crisis
I simply don’t want to tell my life story because there’s tons more information and this maybe a really boring read but I simply don’t know what I want at this moment! I want to travel but that’s a long term goal. What I want to do to get there is what’s really confusing me?
I know this is long but I really think I need some guidance here.
I would be much much appreciated
