It's not "quite bizarre". You gain experience via volunteering at a free clinic and by working as a receptionist in a non-medical office. With that, you apply for work in small private clinics that can't be as choosy.
I don't typically read comments left for others, but your comment to BBG, added to your victim mentality presented in your initial question, makes you look unstable. This could be a huge reason you are having problems finding work in an office, aside from the experience issue. Good office managers are usually pretty good at sniffing out problem applicants.
I strongly recommend looking into finding a good therapist to talk to to help you with whatever issues you are struggling with. I understand how frustrating the experience catch-22 is, but being snarky to someone who gave you a good answer that was fairly benign, would make me question how you function with less than perfectly polite people in reality. This will be a major hurdle for you, especially in health care where people are demanding, rude, terse, annoying, and confrontational.
Talking to a professional may help you handle this better. I wish you nothing but success. Good Luck Edit: So, you deleted your comment to BBG?
No apology or mea culpa? If you are ashamed of what you wrote, you need to address what makes you blurt out things you are ashamed of and why you reacted like you did. Again, I think psychiatric help would be wonderful for you and would assist you in being a better employee and happier in general.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
