    Yeah. Next month? Next year? No, those don't exist. Only next week. It also feels like I'm waiting for something. Something big is going to happen and I'm waiting for it. Once it happens everything will get better. I don't know what I'm waiting for though, but my brain says it'll be great.

      You're waiting for a very specific event which is like a soft apocalypse obviating all of this bullshit work. A utopian, not dystopian change, brought upon by a rapid shift in technology which solves all of our problems and our society in one fell swoop. No more work, just peace, bliss, and vacations for everyone, like a human uplift. Maybe aliens do it. They just benevolently gift us the tech. It's not impossible, it's on the horizon.

      Why?: It's happened before, with the freedom and creation of the Internet, which was a huge upheaval.

      We're all technically waiting for this event. Some of us at the levers need to hurry the fuck up.

        Can't do much by writing messages on here I guess, but still sending a lot of love and support to you. I really hope things will get better. I don't know you personally but I really mean it. You'll get through this week, it'll be okay! 💙

          If those wishes had any power, I'd be having more energy than nuclear reactor.

      Besides what @Anamana@feddit.de said, it could be a vitanim deficiency, there are periods of time where I feel like that and taking vitamins help me, the one I am taking has Vitanim A, C, D, B12, B6 Gingko Biloba and Ginseng, among a bunch of stuff like iron.

        Before playing around with that, I would suggest OP to get their blood checked via hemogram. This way you can usually let doctors determine deficiencies and subsequently adapt your diet/supplements.

      There are many reasons so no one solution fits all. If you don't know how to fix it yourself a competent therapist can often help to find the root cause and ways to address them.

      Depends why you feel like you need to "just get through the week" in the first place.

      For me it's working on my own projects instead of working for somebody else. The difficult part is making money from it. Working 40h on what I am passionate about is far less tiring than working 30h in some office.

      You feel like this because it's an incredibly unhealthy way to live and an utter waste of human potential. Stop doing it.

    I have a damn good job for this area. I have to work 10 hrs/day and do the delivery app thing in the weekend to sustain the lifestyle I like. 13 years of this career and those hours. I am so, so tired.

      Get out of this area!!!
      I work 28 hours a week as IT tech (which I have no official qualification for) and live in a house on 2 acres of land next to a nice city, while financing my wife who's still studying.

          Generally, skill yourself for a career with high future demand that can be done remote, like DevOps, Data Analyst or Sharepoint Admin.
          Then get hired by a company that pays well and live in an area with low cost of living.

          Or like me, have a fuckton of luck, and happen upon a hippie landlord who inherited a house on a large woodland plot and lets you rent it for 500€ as long as you do all the work that needs doing and don't bother her while she finds her true inner spirit 500 miles away in the Alps.
          Then heat your home with firewood from your own plot, build your own furniture in your shed, grow your own veggies, join local food sharing and fleamarket groups, live car-free, go on camping trips for vacation and bring your cost of living down to a point where 40k€/year are plenty.
