not sure if this is the place for this, but my therapist is out of town and i can't seem to reach out to anyone fast enough. i feel like i can't enjoy life. i feel like my only purpose is to go to work and get paid. i hate working, i hate my job, but it's the only thing that gives me any purpose. i have hobbies, but i can't enjoy doing them. all i want to do is eat or sleep. does anyone have advice to help ne to feel something again? i just want to cry because it feels so frustrating.

Just curious what people on this subreddit tend to do if they work or what they do when working.
