If your life is boring, it’s because you are living in a manner that isn’t enjoyable to you. Quit your shitty job and find a better one. Move to a different area if your current area it’s not pleasurable to you.

That line shows a lack of experience. I find happy moments in life, but it’s certainly not all sunshine and rainbows. I’m currently living my life for the betterment of my family, to provide for them. I have to work a job I hate and I given up most of my free time for them. Do I hate them for it, absolutely not. Do I struggle mentally because of it, certainly.

I can’t move because I can’t afford to find a home where I can move my family to. My mom lives with us, which makes it more complicated.

I can’t switch jobs, because I’d have to take almost a 25% to 50% cut in pay to do what ā€œI wantā€ which seems selfish to make others adjust for. I stick with it and keep it mentally as a thing I have to do to provide for others.

I question this every now and than and my own well being is less than those around me. Sucks a lot, I make the best of it. Let me be clinical about life it’s one outlet I have left, I keep myself going by taking my suffering and alternating it into a form of dark humor to lessen the blow of reality.

If you are able to do whatever you want when you want I envy your youth or your solidarity. You’ve obviously not had to make a sacrifice yet or you have been very fortunate. Don’t punch down at people who can’t make those choices.
