Antiwork

Fed up with 9-5, I have only been working for about 2 years

I (23F) just got back from a five day vacation. It was well needed being stressed and tired from work. Now I’m back at work today and that same looming depression is setting in. I don’t want this to be my life. Constantly looking forward to my two days off. I get 10 hours of pto “accumulated” each month. And that’s not just for vacation it’s a combination of sick, vacation and some other bs. I have been in the workforce for just under two years and it’s made me contemplate if life is worth living. My job isn’t hard at all in fact it’s pretty easy at times. But I feel so numb. I have to dissociate to get through my days. I wish I could work from home but unfortunately my job (lab work) isn’t something I can do wfh. I’m seriously thinking of a career switch. Anyone…
