Hey guys, I have only worked for about a year and is already hating this 9-5 work life. Ever since I started working, my physical health and mental health are at all time low.
After work, I'm so drained that I don't even have the energy to exercise. I also stopped my hobby because I'm simply too drained. All I want to do is use my phone and escape. I also often stay up late because I don't want the next day to come where I'll have to work again.
I just can't believe this is it. I'll just be spending more than 8hrs per day on something so “meaningless”, for the rest of my life. Honestly, I feel so pathetic right now because all my friends seem to not mind this 9-5 grind.
I have contemplated changing my job but I think it won't solve the issue at all.
Any advice from those who managed to escape or overcome this feeling?
