    I think I found the real problem. You won’t get strong of you don’t lift, you won’t get fast if you don’t run, and you won’t fix your head if you aren’t willing to put in effort.

        Agreed, however gainful employment is not slavery. There’s suffering in every human being alive, you aren’t a slave because you have mental health issues.

        It is THE most relevant to your problem. I have friends like you, they are miserable but never change anything about themselves to improve their life. I was the same, went to therapy, opened up and untangled the bullshit that was my brain. Takes effort man.

        You see the replies don’t you? There is more than one person pointing at the problem.

          I’ve been where OP is. It’s easy to blame your job for your misery and it might even be the case, but if you don’t take an objective look, then there is an unreliable narrator in your story. It’s easy to forget the good things and focus on the bad. It’s hard to look in the mirror and think, maybe I need a new perspective.
