I am 28 and a woman.

The title sounds dramatic but it really isn’t for me personally.

I do not care about life whatsoever. I am severely depressed and just waiting to die.

Every single day is just another day I can tick off before death because I’m too coward to commit suicide anytime soon and I don’t wish to hurt my family.

I just cannot physically or emotionally deal with work anymore.

These days I am seriously considering committing a crime that will send me to prison. I’m thinking some sort of white collar crime like fraud. Or robbery of a bank.

If it works then great I have money to not work if it doesn’t then great I can go to prison.

There are more pros than cons of going to prison in my opinion.

  • I don’t have to work (I would do some prison work to afford nice snacks)
  • I don’t have to pay bills
  • I get food and drinks for free
  • I have access to books for free
  • I can listen to music/radio
  • I can sleep as much as I want and take naps whenever I want
  • I can watch tv
  • I can play video games
  • I can look up at the sky and have fresh air
  • I can spend my time learning stuff that interests me

Cons
– I have no freedom
– I have no internet
– I can’t drink alcohol

I cannot see a future where I wake up early every morning for work for the next 40 odd years. I just cannot fathom it.

I’d rather spend my days inside prison or be assigned some kind of mental illness that would grant me a room in a psych ward.

I cannot believe these are my only options.

Why is universal basic income not a thing?
