How do i stop being ungrateful?
| I realize I'm in a really privileged position to say this, but if your job makes you want to die, I don't think it's worth staying in. Nothing is worth wanting to kill yourself.
I want to say you should quit/take vacations and do some soulsearching for a bit, but that's not something just anyone can do. Have you looked for a different job, maybe?
| I kinda understand you op, I was sort of in the same position. And idk if the rona has anything to do with the for you but for me rona made me not particularly enjoy my job, the whole situation is pretty exhausting.
But I can also understand where your parents are coming from, time are tough rn and having a source of income is definitely a blessing...
So yeah idk man, just try grinding through it till the tough times are over maybe?
| >>685644 im trying to look for a different job but i work long hours so after work i just want to zone out. Im really tired.
| You're not ungrateful. I hate it when people blame themselves for struggling with shit mentally. You clearly don't enjoy your job and you're stuck in it, which fucking sucks. Sure, a lot of people don't have a job right now, but that doesn't mean that your mental health becomes magically good because, uh, you work when others don't? Like, it's not you being ungrateful. Trust me on that. Mental health and gratefulness are very different things.
| >>685901 thank you for saying that. I live in a country where mental health isn't really prioritized or isn't considered important. Ppl around me had been trying to tell me that i should be grateful that i have what i have so it's been messing me up a lot.

Yeah, that's what I figured. They just don't know shit about mental health and blame you for something they don't understand.

| I have a job but everyday i go to work it makes me want to die. Id actually prefer dying than going to work because of how unhappy and empty i feel everytime i go to work. My parents keep on saying i should be grateful for having a job despite rona. So maybe im just stuck up, yknow? How do i stop thinking like this?
