In May, I began my first full-time contract position in my field with a small organization whose mission I am passionate about. I get along well with my coworkers and I’m gaining experience I never would have dreamed of having right after graduating university. It’s a one-year contract that will almost certainly be renewed next year. The problem? Though I am generally fine now, my first few weeks at work I would cry when I was alone and had this feeling of a huge hole in my heart.
