I really need advice on how to get a first job at 25

Please do not judge me, I am 25 years old I never had a job because I was struggling with my mental health + other issues prevented me from getting my education.

I have for the past year after graduation been trying and people in my life keep telling me to lie on the resume about paste experience lie about jobs etc, and I just don't like doing that it's wrong.

I have never been employed in the past, I have volunteer work in the past and I have managed multiple online groups in the past while I was pursuing my education I don't feel comfortable with putting down about how I was having issues with my mental health.

This job search stuff has been taking a toll on me mentally and it just feels hopeless looking for a job I have had no more than 3 interviews in a year I always showed up dressed nice I don't know what I am doing wrong, is it hopeless? Do I have to lie? Or is it truly hopeless?
