I'm working a job I hate, I make very little money, I don't do much outside of working 10-12 hour shifts and getting high after that. I visit my parents on weekends, so that's good. Occassionally I meet my friends and forget how bad things are.
These days I find myself praying for an economic collapse so I can stop going to work without feeling guilty. I don't have much saved up but I'll be able to take care of myself for about 2 years if I move back with my parents.
I know I'm being selfish, but it's one of the few things keeping me from removing myself.
Also I'd like to see the US collapse before I flatline so I'm hanging on
