GUY “STOPS FEELING JOY” AFTER WORKING FULL TIME, SAYS HE FEELS LIKE AN OLD PERSON
Singapore Uncensored·2024-03-20 12:05
I just graduated a year ago but I honestly feel like an old person. Ever since I started working full time, I gradually stopped feeling any joy in life.
The daily repeated routine of waking up, going to work, coming home to sleep feels like a chore. In fact, I wake up everyday feeling exhausted regardless of how late or early I slept the previous night.
At first, I used to look forward to the weekends as I can spend time with my friends and loved ones. Now, even this feel like a weekly burden. I feel tired being around people.
And so I decided that perhaps I just needed some “me” time and rest during the weekends. I stopped making plans to go out with others.
Instead, I started to sleep till noon and read books or play games the rest of the day. Initially this arrangement felt like a good change but I started feeling bored after a while.
Now I honestly feel happiest and most at peace when I’m asleep. Sometimes I really wish I can just bury myself under a warm and fluffy blanket, fall into deep sleep and never wake up again.
And no, don’t worry I have no thoughts of doing anything rash. I’m terrified of heights and knives plus I still want to be a filial child and support my parents till old.
I just wanted to rant and organise my thoughts a little. Thanks for hearing me out.

If you are feeling no joy in working, it's better to quit. Stop working now and enjoy life otherwise you will die young.

Yeah if you are quite busy throughout the day and this kind if mechanical life makes you feel that the life is quite fast and you will get aged soon even if you are young in just age. This is the problem of present life.
