The title is super cliche but it's true. I was given this piece of advice all throughout my life. My dad always told me to find a job that I love doing and not for the money. Funnily enough his stance switched and he decided to force me into nursing school and to work in healthcare because it paid well enough and he told me he didn't want to see me struggle. I hated every second I worked in healthcare. It was an abusive environment, management was toxic and couldn't care less about you and your well-being. I quit my healthcare job after being there for 3 years. 3 years of misery and manipulation. I found a job doing something that I don't even think of as a job. I've always wanted to pursue my passion and while it's a career change it's what I've always wanted to do. My parents aren't happy because I don't get paid as much as I did at my old job but I'm able to live comfortably and be happy at the same time. So don't fall into the trap of finding a dead end job that doesn't respect you, and has no opportunities for growth. Do something that makes you happy because your overall mental health will improve so much
