I’m currently working 4 ten hour days a week at a job I relatively enjoy. I believe it’s got a bunch to do with my neurodivergence but still, at the end of the day I’m exhausted & have no time or energy for anything I enjoy. I just can’t wrap my head around why we’re doing this. Why have we collectively decided we work all day everyday. Why do we act like this is what we’re supposed to do. It seems so clear to me that this is not how I need to be living but because of the society I live in & not being able to eat or have a roof over my head without working to excess I’m reduced to this.
It’s been suggested to me to try & start my own business or something of the sort. Again I don’t see this as purposeful. Why is purpose either work for someone or yourself. I just want to do a small amount of work to take care of my needs but that’s not an option. I don’t know how to stay sane when my own mind is in conflict with my daily actions.
Feeling burnt out & can’t see an end in sight.
