Desperation is that state of hopelessness and despair that can make you behave in a rash or extreme behavior. It arises mostly when one is in a bad situation or has waited a long time for something to happen.
A lot of different situations can lead to desperation. It could be a single looking forward to a marital settlement but has no one in his or her and feels age is no longer on his or her side as well. It could as well be someone searching for a job and has not succeeded after some series of interviews.
Desperation can cost you a lot if you allow it to overwhelm you. It can lead you into making some bad decisions that you may not be able to correct for the rest of your life. It can make you lose focus and settle for less than what you should have.
No matter what the case may be, do not allow desperation take control of you.
