How to survive racism?

I never thought I would have to experience this. I am Russian and has been living in Ireland for 7 years. My husband is Irish (4 years married) and I consider it my home here. Boy, have I ever thought I would have to go through so much trouble: being well-educated I had several jobs, but non was a normal permanent job, compared to my career in Moscow. Primarily because Irish are jealous for someone with brains (women go crazy once they see that you are good-looking too and got "their Irish man"). I experienced several unfair dismissals. You have no rights here if you work less than 12 months. What is most humiliating is that I received a letter on my application for Irish passport, that says that I was put in a queu for 3 years now in addition to a half-year waiting. I am so tired of being reminded that I am non-EU citizen, tired of being treated like a monkey in the Zoo, tired of unemployment, of having to obtain residencies and visas... How to stay sane and survive immigration?!?

I'm American (my husband is a former Russian citizen) and I have a friend in Ireland. I don't know what the process is there. Do they have a system that allows you to have the equivalent of our green card, to get citizenship? You've been there a while, so probably you've been through it all. I hope you are very close to a successful conclusion now, and that you will soon be able to work in the field you were educated in.
My Irish friend married an Irish man and moved back there from the US, after getting her green card and masters degree here. She is really stunningly beautiful, though I don't know if she had some problems with other Irish women. I would say that you should try to surround yourselves with other people who are as positive and well educated as possible. Hopefully you can find couples, where you both like the husband and the wife. When you get a new job, make an effort to introduce your Irish husband to your female co-workers, so they don't think you are going to try to steal their men.
Is it possible I missed something here? You are asking about racism, but I don't really consider it a racist issue between different groups of white people. My husband's background is Tatar and Turkicized Finns. His niece (who is married to my son) is half Tatar and half Uzbek and she is "drop dead gorgeous." It's quite possible whether you are pure Russian or mixed with one or more of their minorities that you are making a lot of women jealous because of your beauty and because by their standards you are extremely exotic. If they got to know you better, probably some of them would warm to you.

do the exact same things as they do to u. do upon others as you would want them to do apon u. so if they be an *** u be a bigger ***
The way i survive racism it to be more racist against the one who are about me!! It Works For me!!
Hang in there and don't give up. You will be stronger and wiser for the experience. The most important thing with dealing with racism is to not try to understand why they don't like you. You will waste to much time and you really are not going to change much. Try praying for those who are making life difficult for you....Let god do the rest
It is obvious that, being a "foreigner" is working against you.
Also, being attractive is problematic and being the spouse of a " Homeboy" is an insult.
You must accept the reality of your circumstances. Apparently, your frustration has reached its limit. Since you did'nt mention how your spouse is either assisting you or discouraging you, its difficult to determine your support or lack there of.
Whatever your field of study is---find out if there are positions needed to be filled in your specialty.
If you can commute to an area where professionals in your field work then----go for it.
Consider the monkeys in the zoo ; they are there for observation and entertainment.
Do not allow the insensitivity of others to reduce your humanity. Maybe they are trying to break you and your independence.
There are "old" historical reasons why Russia has not joined the EU and it has nothing to do with you---personally.
The unemployment--have you considered that, this may be a time to evaluate if your education or training is marketable in your new residence. If not--go back to school in your new home and meet others that may be helpful.
If possible pursue an advanced degree in your field--through the academic enviroment you may find excellent employment opportunities. Go on campus and you may find an internship in your field that leads to a permanent job.
Unfortunately, the bureaucratic "B.S." is a way of discriminating that in-spite of your best efforts--only your native born spouse may be capable of facilitating.
Stay sane by refusing to repeat the same actions that, lead to the same results.
Choose a new set of goals as they relate to your current needs. For example: go into modeling or anything where your looks are an asset.
Lastly, if you want a good job and steady work in your field of endeavor--move to America---they're giving H-1B visas away to non-American specialist.
Pursue your passion!
Move to the U.S. I have never heard a single person here say anything negative about Russians. As long as you are white,you will fit right in.
