I’m in the process of learning how to video edit. It’s the first thing I’ve actually found that I want to make into a career. However I still have a day job that I feel like is holding me back. I’m so drained from working all day I hardly get to work on my editing skills. My mental health is just continuously deteriorating from having to do this thing I don’t want to do anymore. Suicidal ideation has got to the point where I can’t stop thinking about it. I live with my dad so I am financially supported whether or not I work so working at this job just feels pointless.

I would like to figure out approximately how much revenue the business I work for brings in each year. They often boast about record profits but won’t give a number. I work for a small local company. Any advice would be appreciated

The career and job as a lifestyle thing…what even are we doing? Home doesn't show up at work. I'm ready for work to stop showing up at home.
